RE: nfs questions!!!

hi frank!

i looked in the /etc/exports file.

i've made a number of changes trying to resolve this issue.

/college 192.168.1.*(ro)

i've tried (ro), (rw,ro), (ro,rw), etc...

on my client, i've done a umount/mount after each change. i've also
stopped/restarted the nfs before/after each change to the exports file.

on the client, when i try to edit a file, i still get that it's a readonly
file...

any thoughts... (i'm running a linux FC3 server, with a FC4 client)

thanks

1) how do i allow the nfs on the client to always be active. currently
i've
had to do a "mount 192...:/foo/data /data" to be able to share the drive..
i
know there's a way to setup the system to have the nfs always setup on
boot-up.

Edit /etc/fstab and include the fileserver in that.

Example:

fileserver:/nas/NASDisk-00002/files /mnt/fileserver nfs defaults 0 0

2) i add a file to the shared dir from the nfs system. i try to edit it
from
a client, and i can't. as a client, i can copy the file to my local dir,
and
edit it.. but as a client, i can't overwrite the file on the nfs share.

The /etc/exports file on your fileserver needs to have (rw) specified
instead
of (ro).
