I've put the following line in /etc/exports: /data maproot=root -network aaa.bbb.ccc.128 -mask 255.255.255.128 The NFS server is actually on network aaa.bbb.eee.0 netmask 255.244.255.128 But I get permission denied when I try to mount this filesystem from a machine on the aaa.bbb.ccc.128 netwokr. If I change the line in /etc/exports to: /data maproot=root hostname.example.com I can mount this filesystem. Is there an issue with the server not being directly on the target network? -- Unix is very simple, but it takes a genius to understand the simplicity. (Dennis Ritchie)
