showmount(8) is what you are looking for. You may also want to check out the automounter and/or NIS.On 3/8/06, c.s.prakash

Re: [gentoo-user] NFS

2006-03-08 Thread Darryl Wagoner
It depends upon how much trouble you want to go thru.You could get the source to showmounts and copy that code or you could write your own server which would live on the NFS server to be a directory service for NFS mount points.

man 2 mount is not going to help.If you had looked closer you would realizethat the data argument is the last argument not the filesystem type.Theman page only says that the data argument is typically a comma separated

Greetings,

I just tried to do an update world and got the following error.

I thought that emerge dev-python/elementtree might be needed but that didn't help.
Can someone point me in the right direction?

Huh? A Linux distro will stand out by how well or poorly the distro is, not by the name that is used.Gentoo is one such distro. Gentoo has been the best distro that I have used and I have used many. I would like to see a jump start version which was quicker to get going, but otherwise it is a great distro.
If you had anything to do with creating Gentoo, I would like to say THANK YOU!!!-darrylOn 1/10/06, ellotheth rimmwen

Re: [gentoo-user] A Bit of Trivia

2006-01-01 Thread Darryl Wagoner
Greetings,

I am new to Gentoo user. I have been using Linux since slackware
was the only distro. I had been using Red Hat for many years
until Red Hat until they out grow the desktop users. I tried
Mandrake for a while and found it was a pain to upgrade applications or
install new applications because of version shew of GTK, etc.
Then other things would break. 

I had stayed away from Gentoo because of the high maintains.
But I couldn't find anything else that seem to fit my needs. So I
gave Gentoo a go and have regretted it every since. Regretted not
doing it years before that is.

I can understand why it is a distro for experts. First it takes
away too long to compile everything and configuring the kernel isn't
for a linux newbee either. That is the downside, the upside is
that you only have to do it once. Then you can keep everything up
to date with emerge. So far I have installed 3 systems with
Gentoo and I am going to try to make it the standard at my
company. The tools are great! emerge, rc-update,
etc-update, etc. 

I am a very happy user.
