This'll set your machine up as an NFS server. As I understand it you want to be a client of the NFS server running on the RH machine, right? Modify your /etc/fstab, it should contain a line that goes something like this: server:/usr/local/pub /pub nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr then run 'mount /pub' as root. Voila, you should have 'ls /pub' show the contents of /usr/local/pub on the servr (RH) machine. Consult the nfs manpage to find out more (man nfs). /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0x6A83A7DF) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.lysator.liu.se/~magus/ Getting a SCSI chain working is perfectly simple if you remember that there must be exactly three terminations: one on one end of the cable, one on the far end, and the goat, terminated over the SCSI chain with a silver-handled knife whilst burning *black* candles. -- Anthony DeBoer
