I think the best advice I can give at this point is to carefully read the mount man page. There are a lot of options there that may come into play. I can't think of which options you might need, but my guess is that you need to mount that directory with different options related to permissions and/or users. The other man pages of interrest might be "exports" for the machine that is serving the nfs directory. Maybe the NFS howto would be a good place to look too. -- Did you know that if you play a Windows 2000 cd backwards, you will hear the voice of Satan? That's nothing!
