No. NFS is a file-system technology, and is distinct from networking. You want the NFS group: http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Community+Group+nfs/ nfs-disc...@opensolaris.org > I get this error after mount -a : > > nfs mount: Kaapstad:/admin: No such file or directory I would use "showmount -e Kaapstad" to make sure that system really is exporting those file systems in a way that we can see, and then "wireshark" to see what goes wrong during the mount process. I think it's better to get a cause of the problem first, rather than just modifying arbitrary things to see if it changes. > Kaapstad is in the /etc/hosts file, so that's no problem.

I suspect that something else is amiss. But, if you insist, "man nfs" suggests that the /etc/default/nfs file can be used to tune the available NFS versions. Setting NFS_CLIENT_VERSMAX=3 should do it. -- James Carlson 42.703N 71.076W <carls...@workingcode.com> _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list networking-discuss@opensolaris.org
