Thanks for your response, Peter... Correct, no mount message. /etc/exports is correct with no space. Both machines have booted successfully in windows and attached to the server through Samba as late as yesterday. This is why it's so frustrating. I know that I can boot windows and attach to the server and print on the server's 2 printers. There are 2 other computers running Win98 attached to the server on Samba and printing. My system log has this in it: May 11 19:24:30 DanaLinux dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:4f:49:00:1a:cb via eth0 May 11 19:24:30 DanaLinux dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 192.168.0.102 to 00:4f:49:00:1a:cb via eth0 May 11 19:24:32 DanaLinux dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for 192.168.0.102 (192.168.0.101) from 00:4f:49:00:1a:cb via eth0 May 11 19:24:32 DanaLinux dhcpd: DHCPACK on 192.168.0.102 to 00:4f:49:00:1a:cb via eth0 May 11 20:19:40 DanaLinux amd[2950]: reload of map /etc/amd.net is not needed (in sync) May 11 21:22:34 DanaLinux userhelper: pam_timestamp: timestamp file `/var/run/sudo/dana/unknown:root' is too old, disallowing access to redhat-logviewer for UID 500 May 11 21:23:40 DanaLinux amd[2950]: reload of map /etc/amd.net is not needed (in sync)
I'm running rtl8039 on server and 1 client and a 3com905 on the other client. Both clients are picking up the right info on the cards and the kernel loads through dhclient. It hangs when mounting the filesystem. I can even mount the /opt/ltsp/i386 folder in one of the windows machines and view its contents! The cards and computers communicate. I believe still that this is a NFS rights problem or there would be some other issue somewhere else. I am going to set up a floppy boot for another machine which has RH9 on it and has had NFS going both ways but, at this point, don't really expect to get a different answer.
