X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 14 Dec 2005 06:57:57 -0000 Hello Family, I have been trying to export four mounted iso images under /mnt on my FreeBSD-5.4 box via nfs and I can export everything under /mnt but the iso's don't show up on the client, only the directories. First I mounted all the iso's with the following series of commands. mdconfig -a -t vnode -f file1.iso -u 1 mount -t cd9660 /dev/md1 /mnt/loop1 mdconfig -a -t vnode -f file1.iso -u 2 mount -t cd9660 /dev/md2 /mnt/loop2 mdconfig -a -t vnode -f file3.iso -u 3 mount -t cd9660 /dev/md3 /mnt/loop3 mdconfig -a -t vnode -f file4.iso -u 4 mount -t cd9660 /dev/md4 /mnt/loop4 ######################################################### ere is my /etc/exportfs on the FreeBSD-5.4 server /mnt -maproot=0 -network 192.168.1.0 -mask 255.255.255.0 ######################################################### Here are the mounted iso's via the mount command on the server. /dev/md1 on /mnt/loop1 (cd9660, local, read-only) /dev/md2 on /mnt/loop2 (cd9660, local, read-only) /dev/md3 on /mnt/loop3 (cd9660, local, read-only) /dev/md4 on /mnt/loop4 (cd9660, local, read-only) ######################################################### On the other Unix client box I can mount the exported "/mnt" and see all the "/mnt/loop*" but no contents. On the other Unix client box I can also mount "/mnt/loop1" and still not see any contents under "/mnt/loop1" On the server the directories are full of contents under /mnt/loop1 /mnt/loop2 /mnt/loop3 /mnt/loop4 I'm thinking that I can nfs export iso filesystems on other flavors of Unix like systems but not on FreeBSD. Am I missing anything obvious or...? TIA __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
