Make sure you kill -HUP mountd after mounting the CDROMs. Supposedly this happens automatically but you can never be sure. > My /etc/exports on the 2.2.2 machine looks like this: > > /exports -ro -network 38.152.138 -mask 255.255.255.0 > /usr -ro -network 38.152.138 -mask 255.255.255.0 > > I've tried nfs mounting from FreeBSD 2.2.1 and Linux 1.2.13 > and got the same results: empty subdirectories for the CDs. > Any hints? Exports won't cross mountpoints. If you want to export /exports/cdrom, you'll need to add it to /etc/exports.
