This does not access your /etc/fstab at all and therefore doesn't accomplish what I was trying to help you determine. Do _this_: mount /home With no second parameter, mount will look through /etc/fstab for a mountpoint that matches /home and use the config in that line if it finds one. This tests your /etc/fstab I don't believe that 'mount NFSD:/home2 /home' forces mount to access the /etc/fstab file. > So that also pretty much clears NFSD too /etc/exports works as evidenced > in showmounts -e and that I can manually mount it from HTTPD.
