on the server and, yes showmount and mounting devices loopback work

no firewall on either host.
If all is good there then my last think would be why not just put your mount in fstab and skip the automounter jazz?
not a bad idea. I was merely following the instructions in the build host tutorial. I've often thought automounter was a good idea and a decent way to deal with server or client's bouncing up and down. I'd hope in the past few years, folks would have fixed its unreliability.
thank you for your suggestions. ---eric -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
