Whelp I don't have a firewall... and I don't know about you but my MCC only lets me mount servers with NFS Mounts, not create them. ÂAm I missing something? ÂMy entire /etc/exports file is as follows: /home/eric   Â*(rw) /var/www/html  *(rw) It says "permission denied" when I try to access. ÂAny help? -- Registered Linux user #366862 Not that you care, but this message was sent from a 750MHz Athlon system running SuSE Linux 9.1 (Kernal 2.6.5) and KMail 1.62. ÂI aslo run Red Hat Linux 8.0 (Kernal 2.4.18), Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 (Kernal 2.2.20), Mandrake Linux 9.2 (Kernal 2.4.22), and YellowDog Linux 3.0 (Kernal 2.4.20) on various systems and architectures for various reasons. ÂYeah, and there's a old Mac OS in there somewhere that I use as a bootloader for Linux, and a Windows XP box used as a router for my Linux-based network, but they don't count, 'cuz they aren't "real" OS's. ÂWho me? Biased? Nah!
