I only did this because both boxes are new installs, and I'd need access to the whole box. > Taking a SWAG, there's no separate partition for the /home dir, shops /home is a separate partition, lathes is not, and it Just Works as long as I have the fstab entries on this machine. > and > you've got everything on one big partition?

Yup, because I wasn't using the "nohide" option in both lines of the exports file on shop, and was using fsid=0 in the /home line too, changing the fsid to the blkid of that partition in the second line for the /home export and it all Just Worked(TM). This was after TDE's discovery tool popped up and I told it to automount what it found. So now I've used a gene session of mc to move the zmanda version of the amanda-client.deb from lathe to shop, then ran into another problem, sudo synaptic from the ssh -Y session refuses to run, wrong display. xhost says its all allowed, but I can't find a manpage that describes how I can allow a 10.0 display request to open on this machine, wrong auth is the message from shop. gene@shop:~$ sudo synaptic [sudo] password for gene: X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication. (synaptic:7247): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: localhost:10.0 So I'll need to go out there and find all the wheezy amanda crap and nuke it before I install the zmanda version. Grrrr.

Because /home was on a separate partition, it has to be a separate export. > Mark Thanks Mark.
