Two 4.3/i386 machines, one with enough disk space for the ports
collection and the other with hardly any disk.

I'm looking to install the net-snmp port with the packetmischief patches
onto the smaller machine. I tried using NFS, mounting the /usr/ports
directory read-write as root:

on server's /etc/exports:
/usr/ports -alldirs -network=666.2.1.0 -mask=255.255.255.0

on client:
mount -t nfs 666.2.1.46:/usr/ports /usr/ports

But this produced permissions errors:

# make install
mkdir: /usr/ports/net/net-snmp/w-net-snmp-5.4.1: Permission denied
mkdir: /usr/ports/net/net-snmp/w-net-snmp-5.4.1: Permission denied
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/net/net-snmp (line 1913 of
/usr/ports/infrastructure/mk/bsd.port.mk).
*** Error code 1

Is there some other way to install ports across machines?

thanks
