This same exact setup worked yesterday, when the 7.2 box
was a 7.1 box, so yes, the permissions on the exported
directories should be O.K., unless I'm missing something
very basic.
Well, the fact that you were successful definitely gives me
hope for upgrading the other box to 7.2.
Now, if I can just get a response on how to switch to
GNOME instead of KDE2, I'll be golden! (There is no more
'switchdesk' utility, but hopefully, there's something
similar in 7.2? Anyone?)
Thanks,
