I have a noticed an inconsistance in this section: [code] The mountd daemon must be forced to recheck the /etc/exports file whenever it has been modified, so the changes can take effect. This can be accomplished either by sending a HUP signal to the running daemon: # kill -HUP `cat /var/run/mountd.pid` or by invoking the mountd rc(8) script with the appropriate parameter: # /etc/rc.d/mountd reload Please refer to Section 11.7 for more information about using rc scripts. [/code] The command "/etc/rc.d/mountd reload" doesn't work neither says nothing. Yet "/etc/rc.d/mountd forcereload" works and says: "Reloading mountd config files." Section 11.7 states that 'force' is needed when rc script is not enabled in /etc/rc.conf. There is no place in this document which recommends turning mountd on. Instead we have: [code] On the NFS server, make sure that the following options are configured in the /etc/rc.conf file: rpcbind_enable="YES" nfs_server_enable="YES" mountd_flags="-r" mountd runs automatically whenever the NFS server is enabled. [/code] Both this places can't be correct at once. -- [WBR], Arcade.
