Yes exactly.

Yes. I put an asterisk to make sure that there is no restrictions.

Thank you.

NFS Share.

Does the first PC you start in the group successfully mount the NFS
share, and the others get the message?

But remember, one pc at a time, it work perfectly.

Does each machine you do in the one at a time mode get the same IP
each time?

Here is the DHCP.conf file:

ddns-update-style interim;
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.0.10 192.168.0.254;

Does the NFS server accept mount requests from IPs in that entire range?
