Thanks Connie and Troy.

I checked tabs and spaces.

Default entries are separated by spaces, so I fit mine to there.

But, it changes nothing.

Troy.

Here's my log

Feb 17 01:40:43 pheko09 mountd[10387]: authenticated mount request from
pheko12:945 for /home (/home)

Since I inserted two lines in fstab file, two lines should be exist on log
file.

But, there's only one!!!!

I think SL 5.4 cannot send the message to the nfs server.

I tried with SL 5.3 and it is just the same.

hmm..

Is this the error that I cannot fix?
