Lines: 14 [Oh Great Usenet, why doesn't this work????] Thanks to all who responded promptly to my inquiry. As I picked up the phone to call Encore, a gentleman from Encore called me (sorry, I can't remember your name, but thanks a lot). Apparently, the preliminary copy of the NFS manual wasn't very specific that the /etc/exports file must contain the root of a file system, not just any directory. I haven't had the experience with NFS before, so I wasn't aware of this. ============================================================================== Brian O'Neill, MS-DOS Software Exchange Coordinator ArpaNet: boneill@hawk.ulowell.edu UUCP: {(backbones),harvard,mit-eddie,et. al.}!ulowell!hawk.ulowell.edu!boneill
