First of all: using NFS "naked" over the Internet is *not* a good idea. Always use some sort of encryption, either with e.g. stunnel, or with a ssh tunnel. NFS and portmap are considered even worse than telnet or r* services when it comes to security, so don't take any risk if you value your reputation and personal data. Then the fstab entry. At the moment anyway, I can't get mohed.com to resolve, but that's not unusual for a dyndns host I suppose. Have a look at nfs(5) for all the available options for NFS in fstab " Here is an example from an /etc/fstab file from an NFS mount. server:/usr/local/pub /pub nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,int " Theo -- Theo v.
