Hi,

If you're trying to export things like /usr/local from one machine to
another, do you have the correct entries in your /etc/exports and
/etc/fstab?  On my network, I'm exporting /usr/local/hklint from ripley
to weaver.  In ripley's /etc/exports, I have the entry:

/usr/local/hklint       weaver(rw)

In weaver's /etc/fstab, I have the entry:

ripley:/usr/local/hklint /usr/local/hklint nfs defaults

And make sure you have all of your machines listed in /etc/hosts.  Hope
this helps.  Good luck,



Hidong
