Hi all,
I'm trying to mount an nfs exported directory to a linux-2.2.0pre5
I've tried using tcp,udp and nfsv2,nfsv3 with no luck at all, all I get is
"Permision denied"
The only thing I find extrange is:
rpcinfo -u host 15 (mountd)
program 15 versio
As others have already pointed out, that's actually a feature with "~"
representing your home-directory. If you want to force bash to display
the full path, you can embed ${PWD} into PS1 - be sure to enclose it in
single quotes, so that it's not expanded during the actual assignment.
