Hello,
Thank you for your advise. I was able to get the system going. But
something wierd happened.
I logged on as rajeev. (I removed that extra entry in the exports file).
I was able to do standard procedures, such as reading/writing. However,
although the operations worked, a constant error message was reflected on
the server. Unfortunately I could not record the messages. But it was
something about permission violations.
Another problem was that I could not start X.
Anyway, I decided to re-do the entire setup(I've to be compentent enough to
get my college network going, so I'm practising at home).
I followed the same procedure as far as I can recollect.
However, for some reason. My user directory suddenly became in-accesable
from the server itself! On giving an ls command in the home directory,
The user directory was *blinking*. On trying the whole thing again (third
try) I faced the same problem.
What could this be due to?
The college lab has 15 celeron 300'A's, 32MB. The server also has the same
config. Do you foresee a problem in this. We also intend to connect old
486's as dumb-terminals on to the same server. Could you tell me if there is
HOWTO on how to install linux over an NFS? I couldn't find one in the HOWTO
directory?
Rajeev
