Make sure you have nfs_server (or nfs_client depending on the machine) enabled in /etc/rc.conf, I've only ever used nfs_server so I can't say anything about the client only NFS working. > i read man page for /etc/exports file. but i still can not mount. This is my /etc/exports file. / -maproot=root:wheel pacer amiga toshiba /var -maproot=root:wheel pacer amiga toshiba /usr -maproot=root:wheel pacer amiga toshiba However if you want to mount /usr/ports/distfiles directly, either add an entry for it to /etc/exports, or use the -alldirs option for /usr. i.e. Something like... /usr -alldirs,-maproot=root:wheel pacer amiga toshiba P.S. Pacer is my main machine running FreeBSD 2.2.6-BETA, amiga is my Amiga 3000 running NetBSD/68k 1.2.1. Toshiba is my notebook running FreeBSD 2.2.5-RELEASE. I have an ethernet network at home, but the toshiba uses the parallel port IP interface until I get a PCMCIA ethernet card. I find the parallel port IP interface causes the toshiba to sporadically reboot a lot so I haven't been able to upgrade it to 2.2.6 yet.
