In 2.0.5 you can edit (if not done in the installation dialog) /etc/sysconfig and enable nfsserver=YES, nfsclient=YES and things should be set up automatically. Don't forget to edit /etc/exports to contain the filesystems you want to export and if you want to mount any other nfs servers put that mount into /etc/fstab like: host:/usr/local /usr/local nfs rw,bg > > Jeff > > > > -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= > - Jeffrey D.
