Hi, My woes with nfs continue .... I now have two machines running linux one running RH7.3 the other running RH8.0 (whoo network install), I now want to have a single home directory on both, easy right .... no
I have shared /home on machine 1, and I can mount it on machine 2, but not during the boot sequence. When I mount it to somewhere other than /home on machine 2 I can look through my files on the other machine but I really want it mounted on /home at boot .... /var/log/messages on machine 1 tells me that rpc.mountd authenticates the mount request from machine 2 and it appears to do it a few times (9 in total). /var/log/messages on machine 2 just tells me that mount: RPC Timed out and Mounting of NFS file systems subsequently fails. The line I am trying to use in /etc/fstab is <snip> IP_MACHINE_1:/home /home nfs rw 0 0 </snip> Which in theory should work. Any pearls of wisdom? Mark
