Thanks for the quick response. I configured the Ethernet card when I installed the FreeBSD. The thing I felt strange is that I configured FreeBSD 4.1 and 3.4 in the exactly same way (they are on the same machine), but 4.1 mounted the NFS filesystems correctly, while 3.4 fails. I do not know which kind of information I should send to you to diagnose, please let me know. --Zhenhai On Sun, 17 Sep 2000, Alfred Perlstein wrote: > * Zhenhai Duan <duan@cs.umn.edu> [000917 09:34] wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I have NFS server runing on a Redhat 6.1 system, and want to make > > a Freebsd system to be a client.
