I am trying to get NFS (client) support working with a 2.4.18 kernel.
When I do "mount -t NFS" i get: mount: fs type NFS not supported by kernel
But my .config has
CONFIG_NFS_FS=y
# CONFIG_NFS_V3 is not set
# CONFIG_ROOT_NFS is not set
CONFIG_NFSD=y
Any idea what is wrong here?
TIA

Sure, do it all the time; just enable ipaliasing on your one nic, then
ifconfig eth0:1, etc and set up routes before trying to config ipchains
or tables.
Sorry,
should have cp'd the list on this fix ... and it did solve the issue.
