Chris, to do NFS over tcp, you'd need to set the option like this: MOPTS="nolock,ro,wsize=8192,rsize=8192,proto=tcp" The linuxrc script is looking for the 'MOPTS' variable to pass to the mount command. You need to also pass the other options, because with MOPTS, it's all or nothing. That

Jeff, In my previous email, I mentioned that your broadcast was wrong. It could be that you want that broadcast setting, in which case, you need to change your netmask. To sum it up, if you want a broadcast of 10.255.255.255, then you need to change your netmask to 255.0.0.0 If, on the other h

Jeff, First thing I notice is that your broadcast (Bcast) isn't correct for your chosen Netmask (Mask). For a netmask of 255.255.255.0, your broadcast should be 10.2.2.255 I can't say for sure that it would cause your problems, but if eth0 is the thin-client network, then NFS could certainly ha

Hi all, I've got a trio of LTSP servers that all behave the same way. They're happy to work if the internet is plugged in, but if you unplug it, they fail to get NFS to their own internal terminal network, which is still perfectly well plugged. So here's the setup: Debian + LTSP (/opt/ltsp/i386/e
