pretty sure the config I sent originally is right - the server is
192.168.2.1 and the client 192.168.2.2... so the entry in the config
file on 192.168.2.1 says "export this volume to a client at
192.168.2.2"
actually that reminds me - I did screw up the original fstab
anaonymising - by accidentally sticking an extra space in there which
seems to cause problems - but it's not in my fstab file - just the
email - the fstab file actaully looks like this, with the client
address and brackets for options touching:
[[EMAIL PROTECTED] /root]# cat /etc/exports
/ 192.168.2.2(rw)
/usr 192.168.2.2(rw)
/usr/local/src/updates 192.168.2.2(ro,no_root_squash)
/mnt/cdrom 192.168.2.2(ro,no_root_squash)

those extra options look exciting - but they're on the client side
(/etc/fstab) and the errors I'm getting are when I try to start the
nfs server...

pretty sure my /etc/exports syntax (well the correct version listed
above anyway) is correct... but please correct me if I'm wrong! :)
still not having much luck - some mounts work where others don't...
ugh - sleepy - hopefully someone will have a clue for me when I wake up! :)
tia again - dan.
