Hi, Sorry I meant export. I have not tried the NFS client in a zone but as I said exporting an NFS share from the global zone worked fine and maybe that's good enough for a small local setup.
Cheers for the "unfs3" help - I must have missed it when searching the pkg's earlier. Sean. ________________________________________ From: Joshua M.

The NFS client absolutely does work in zones. It's the NFS server (i.e., exporting file systems _from_ zones to be mounted by other systems) that isn't available. If you absolutely need to provide NFS server functionality in a zone, there are a number of options. One example is the "unfs3" usermode NFS server, which doesn't use the in-kernel NFS functionality at all. This program is available as a pkgsrc package. Cheers. -- Joshua M.
