Like most old fart farts, I do find the mental processes are slowing, particularly the short term memory aspects. I will be the first to admit that the tested IQ I had at age 12, 65 years ago, 147, has faded enough that its starting to get my attention. Now I have to grab the eagle book Ed was kind enough to print and send me and dbl-check just about everything I do if its been 20 minutes since I last did it. TBH, that hurts, a lot. How much of that can be thrown at the number of calendars I've thrown away, and how much to the blood vessel damages that type 2 diabetes is doing to me, is probably open for debate. I really worry when the glucose hits 200+, but its been years since I tested under 135 2 checks in a row. > > method of send this stuff around on my home, private as I can make it, > > network. > > > > Thanks all. > > > > Cheers, Gene > > The following needs to be done as root or use sudo: > > * assume one side is the NFS server: This machine > - install package autofs done > - edit /etc/exports with something like > /home/gene (rw,sync,no_subtree_check) done > - restart autofs this worked, it wasn't running > service nfs-kernel-server restart no such service on a pclos machine > test with > showmount -e <- to get > Export list for <servername>: > /home/gene * [root@coyote gene]# showmount -e Export list for coyote.coyote.den: /home/gene * > * on the workstation side: > - install package autofs > - edit /etc/auto.master to enable auto.net function > /net -hosts <- line that likely needs to be uncommented service autofs restart returns: autofs start/running, process 24811 > that will let you see (automount) servers' export under > /net/<servername> > where <servername> is your "other PC". ls /net shows nothing while 'ls > /net/<servername> should show exported files in your home directory. > Now let's test this setup: > touch /net/<servername>/xxx > ls -l /net/<servername>/xxx gene@shop:/etc$ ls /net/coyote home and: gene@shop:/etc$ ls /net/coyote/home/gene/eagle lathe-encoder ulp gene@shop:/etc$ ls /net/coyote/home/gene/eagle/lathe-encoder eagle.epf lathe-encoder.b#2 lathe-encoder.bot.etch.tap lathe-encoder.pro lathe-encoder.top.drill.tap lathe-encoder.b## lathe-encoder.b#3 lathe-encoder.bot.mill.tap lathe-encoder.s#1 lathe-encoder.top.etch.tap lathe-encoder.b#1 lathe-encoder.bot.drill.tap lathe-encoder.brd lathe-encoder.sch lathe-encoder.top.mill.tap gene@shop:/etc$ Amazingly (to me) it looks like it is working. A first since I switched from amigados to linux in 1997. One more test from the shop box gene@shop:/etc$ touch /net/coyote/home/gene/killroy-was-here touch: cannot touch `/net/coyote/home/gene/killroy-was-here': Permission denied So its a one way deal at best. I can fire up mc and copy a directories contents from here to the shop, and just did, but I can't move anything back. To get things like the drill files in sync, it needs to be a 2 way deal. Is this as simple as making matching entries for exports and such on both machines so that each machine is both client and server? Thank you very much, Rafael. Nothing beats clear & concise instructions. Cheers, Gene -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
