Thanks :) Just do (as root): touch /var/db/mountdtab And the next time you boot the error will have magically vanished. mountd uses the file to record a list of which systems have nfs mounted which partitions. It's only a warning, as NFS & mountd are stateless, and don't particularly care who has mounted what in the past. The file is only really there for the admins to looks at. Gary
