I tried changing the syntax, as you suggested, and I got the following error: aflac> exportfs -a export: No "=<hosts>" in "rw" option exportfs: invalid option, /vol/vol1/IssueManager not exported export: No "=<hosts>" in "rw" option exportfs: invalid option, /vol/vol1/admin not exported ... etc ... Here is the actual entry from the exports file on the filer: /vol/vol1/IssueManager -rw,root=sloth.spd.analog.com:zeus.spd.analog.com:chimc h im.spd.analog.com:chimchim-ge2.spd.analog.com:thrak.spd.analog.com:mr_coffee.sp d .analog.com:jetcar.spd.analog.com:topgun.spd.analog.com:cyclone.spd.analog.com But my understanding anyway is that by default the permission for an exported filesystem on the filer should be -rw anyway, so I'm not sure why you would have to specify it. -Dave ________________________________________________________________________ David Meleedy Analog Devices, Inc.
