Send > the exact command you're using. i've attached the working exports file. after i had a nights sleep, i think i know what changed. i did have /usr/home ......... and then /usr ...... on the next line, when i tried to put them on one line and it didn't work, i moved them back to a seperate line. i don't know if have /usr/home before /usr would cause a problem, but thats the only thing i can think of that changed ok, the messages that mountd was giving were: mount request denied from 172.16.32.103 for /usr and the message that i got on the client was simply a permission denied. the command i was using, and am still using because it works is mount_nfs 172.16.33.3:/usr/home mount_point could the entries in exports being in the wrong order have caused this? or is there such a thing as being in the wrong order? thanks for all the help Nathan --------------Boundary-00=_VH1AYEKV76BGS3PBP72L Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"; name="exports" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="exports" L3VzcgkJMTcyLjE2LjMyLjEwMyAKL3Vzci9ob21lCS1tYXByb290PW5hdGhhbgkxNzIuMTYuMzIu MTAzCg== --------------Boundary-00=_VH1AYEKV76BGS3PBP72L-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
