Re: NFS Help
If your server is nfsv4 (freebsd 7.x) the nfs protocol used is tcp. The older machines (freebsd 5 or 6) the nfs prococol is udp... try to use the -T switch (mount_nfs option...) on the older machines so they will use tcp... hope this will help Sergio ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Am I missing something? NFS exports filesystems, not directory trees. NFS permits you to mount a subdirectory of an export/share, but you cannot mount two child directories of a share if those directories are ancestors of one another on the same filesystem. Please refer to _Managing NFS and NIS_, O'Reilly, p92: 2. You cannot export any subdirectory of an exported filesystem unless the subdirectory is on a different physical device. 3. You cannot export any parent directory of an exported filesystem unless the parent is on a different physical device. Some of these restrictions can be mitigated with the -alldirs flag, but look at showmount to see what you are actually exporting. -- -Chuck ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hope this will solve your prob. as I faced the similar one when I tried to use nfs. create and compile a kernel with options NFS on both machines then edit the file /etc/exports on the machine that needs to share the directory, and add the line : /usersdir -ro ip of client add the -ro to share read only. if read write then use -maproot=uid:gid after this do a killall -HUP mountd and then login to the client and type mount -t nfs ip of server:/userdir /mnt you can change /mnt in any other directory. this should be all you need to do to set up an NFS system.

Re: nfs help plz
What exactly are you doing?? Long story short, setup /etc/rc.conf for nfs on client and server. Setup /etc/exports on server for clients that need access. Restart or start nfs Should be good from there. Oh, also make sure kernels are compiled with nfs support. I believe thats it...
