OH. Different problem, but it might have some bearing. I just switched my network from /etc/hosts to DNS zone, and now none of my clients have permission to mount my NFS exports. I've asked about it on debian-user, but would any of y'all happen to have any suggestions? I can mount when the client is in the server's /etc/hosts, and according to the DNS howto and nslookup, everything's kosher. > are you sure you are using the right kernel ? > I didn't read the start of this thread, but on which subarch are you > installing? > (sun4c, sun4m, sun4u). Not sure, actually. The machine's a sun4c (IPX), and I'm booting both Slink's 2.2.1 and the 2.2.14 from the last set of Potato floppies. The system I installed to NFS is the year-old Slink set. I'm keeping the hard drive clean for the next Potato install. > > Hope this helps. > > -- > Eric Delaunay | "La guerre justifie l'existence des > militaires. > [EMAIL PROTECTED] | En les supprimant."
