Allan, First check your exports
#exportfs -v the answer should include something like this /opt/ltsp/i386 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0(ro,no_root_squash) /var/opt/ltsp/swapfiles 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0(rw,no_root_squash) /home 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0(rw,no_root_squash) etc... otherwise, refresh your exports #exportfs -a and look at the from mountd to see any clues in the log of your server # tail /var/log/messages | grep mound it should show you something like Jan 24 20:02:01 yourservername rpc.mountd: authenticated mount request from 192.168.0.xxx:800 for /opt/ltsp/i386 (/opt/ltsp/i386) etc.... good luck, Cicero On Thursday 24 January 2002 18:44, you wrote: > I've checked my /etc/exports.
