hahahahahaha Me too. I finally got it to go away, but I don't know how. The odd thing is if I do an exportfs -r it will show the *non-existing* /cdrom, but the next time I do exportfs -r it may or may not be there...
Now I am having a hard time getting it to show sub-filesfs' that are mounted. Even if I use the "nohide" option it still will not show the mounted fs directory, unless I specificaly export it. Then it shows up on the nfs mount and the parent directory mounted by nfs. I think they need to go back to the drawing board on this release, it's apparently screwed up in more ways than one.

Bugzilla? > FWIW, it's not a Red Hat specific problem. I had a *long* go-around w/ NFS on a SuSE 7.3 box. The reason I haven't piped up about it just yet is that I can't remember what I did to fix it/ make the problem go away. Somehow or another it gets a stale entry 'wedged' in one of the files. I spent a lot of time digging thru the man pages for exports, exportfs, mount, you name it. I *think* I may have deleted one of the *tab files in /ar/nfs and then recreated it, but I can't remember what I did for sure. I'll have to take notes next time. Actually, it was irritating enough I hope there *isn't* a next time :( Sorry, Monte _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
