/etc/exports already has a few entries in it, yet dmesg doesn't reveal that the init scrip's been called. When I call it manually it tries to launch the daemons yet none of them starts up. At least they're not there according to 'ps -a'. When I launch rpc.nfsd manually I get this: root# rpc.nfsd -F -d call nfsd[167] 07/16/98 17:25 Could not bind name to socket 0.0.0.0:2049: Address already in use nfsd[167] 07/16/98 17:25 could not make a udp socket Any ideas what's going on?
