Unfortunately, there is not /etc/fstab because these aren't UNIX machines that I'm trying to mount to; they're NCDs. The NCDs can mount files off of a BSDI machine configured exactly the same way but can't mount the FreeBSD filesystems. If I run tcpdump on the FreeBSD machine when I try to read a file from the NCD, I can see four udp packets but the NCD claims that permission is denied to the file (And the permissions on the files and all directories leading to the files are world readable, I checked). The only thing I can come up with is a mountd problem. Other suggestions? -- Amy Rich Oceanwave Consulting, Inc.
