nfs3 over wifi works just fine for me, I use it all the time at home. Setting it up was no different to setting up a wired interface - set exports on the server, mount from the client. I suspect the problems you are having are unrelated to wifi as such and are probably something more mundane. I take it you've checked all the usual suspects such as your current IP is allowed to connect to the server, there's no access rules blocking you and so on? -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
