Have you seen the build host tutorial on the wiki? http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Create_A_Build_Host

no I had not. look like just what I need. also looks like putting it in place would be faster than waiting for the current set of updates to finish.

setup according to the build a host directions but automounter isn't working. It's probably a typo but it's escaping me

on build host:

xeno linux-2.6.10-xenU # showmount -e
Export list for xeno:
/usr/portage/distfiles                  *.harvee.org
/build/gentoo/i686/var/lib/portage      *.harvee.org
/build/gentoo/i686/usr/portage/packages *.harvee.org

should be open to any machine within my network

on build client:

harvee-xeno ~ # more /etc/autofs/auto.master
# $Id: auto.master,v 1.3 2004/12/09 08:25:48 robbat2 Exp $
# Sample auto.master file
# Format of this file:
# mountpoint map options
# For details of the format look at autofs(8).
#/net   /etc/autofs/auto.net
#/misc  /etc/autofs/auto.misc
#/home  /etc/autofs/auto.home

/misc /etc/autofs/auto.misc --timeout=600  --ghost
harvee-xeno ~ #

harvee-xeno ~ # more /etc/autofs/auto.misc
distfiles       -fstype=nfs,bg,hard xeno:/usr/portage/distfiles
packages -fstype=nfs,bg,hard xeno:/build/gentoo/i686/usr/portage/packages
var_lib_portage -fstype=nfs,bg,hard xeno:/build/gentoo/i686/var/lib/portage

basically the same as the documentation. I only substituted build for mnt. the how-to on using automounter gives some sketchy instructions but nothing on debugging or diagnostics.

Any suggestions or should I go dig out my circa 1992 O'Reilly NFS book?
