While TCP in general may be available, NFS over TCP may not be. It's a configuration option, and it sounds like whoever installed the NFS server allowed it to default to NFSv2 which spoke only UDP. Check your NFS server configuration and make sure NFSv3 is enabled. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
