Mikkel,
After modifying /etc/exports, I ran /etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart.
Assumed that would make the new exported filesystem visible.
This is what /etc/exports looks like now:
/home 192.168.55.0/24(rw)
/usr1 192.168.55.0/24(rw)
/var/spool/mail 192.168.55.0/24(rw)
/mnt/cdrom 192.168.55.0/24(ro)
And, I mounted /mnt/cdrom.
The IP address of the notebook is in /etc/hosts.allow because it was
working just fine before I messed it up. I'd connect it to the network to
transfer files back and forth.
Here are some pertinent entries from /var/log/messages:
Jan 16 10:20:49 salmo mountd[449]: refused mount request from lemna.appl-ecosys.com
for /mnt/cdrom (/): no export entry
Jan 16 10:26:53 salmo network: Shutting down interface eth0 succeeded
...
Jan 16 10:26:54 salmo network: Bringing up interface eth0 succeeded
Jan 16 10:27:17 salmo mountd[449]: refused mount request from lemna.appl-ecosys.com
for /mnt/cdrom (/): no export entry
Jan 16 10:27:28 salmo mountd[449]: refused mount request from lemna.appl-ecosys.com
for /mnt/cdrom/RedHat (/): no export entry
Makes no sense. Unless I didn't do the right thing to make the exported
filesystems visible. Is that the case?
Thanks,
