Keywords: NFS ISC Message-ID: <1990Dec11.183503.3944@micromuse.co.uk> Date: 11 Dec 90 18:35:03 GMT Sender: peter@micromuse.co.uk (Peter Galbavy) Organization: Micromuse Ltd, London Lines: 19 Can anyone out there help ? I am trying to allow an NFS partition to be mounted 'trusted' (or what ever the correct term is). On SunOS I would put -root=machine after the file system in /etc/exports, but this seems to have no effect in ISC 2.2. The manuals do not help as they discuss only the use of sysadm (which I also tried as a last resort). The system is a 386/486 running ISC 2.2 Workstation Developer. Help !!!
