Well, the epic hairball that is NFS has been retired here, in favor of sshfs. I have nuked all the fstab entries related to NFS mounts. First, I installed sshfs on all machines. Then on each machine I have created an /sshnet/machine_name directory for all the other machines. That then was "sudo chown -R gene:gene /sshnet" If left as owned by root, then the mounting must be done using a root pw, which doesn't exist on our LCNC installs. Then on each machine (logged into the others with an ssh -Y login) do sshfs user@somehost:/just/the/path /where/i/want/it and to unmount: fusermount -u /where/i/want/it Now any file manager like mc, can cd /sshnet/machine_alias and look at those directories accessable by gene. >From any machine to any machine EXCEPT from "lathe" to "shop", that gets a "connection reset by peer" return. So the machine named shop is still being a spoilt brat, but thats a hell of a lot closer to having a transparent file sharing local network wide than I had at 4:00 this morning. The only fly is that when the sshfs link is mounted, those directories I made owned by me so I wasn't asked for a root pw that does not exist, have been chowned back to root:root. If they stay that way, it will be more tap dancing to reset that before re-initializing the share after a reboot. And it didn't take but 2 folks on the TDE list to make me aware of sshfs, and to show the example syntax pasted above. Now, out to fix and add the new tool code to blanket-chest3.ngc that I wrote about way too early this morning. > For an example of what can happen, google Therac 25 I think I did that once before. I guess that was an instant legend in its own time. ;-) Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
