NFS: fifo, swap (was: Re: no NFS mount)

This problem is solved now! It was a small typo in /etc/fstab ... colon
instead of a point. :-/
However, the error messages still appear, although the system comes up
(after a long amount of time...)

Any hints??
And ... Does anybody know how to create a "fifo" device file over NFS?
>From the newsgroups I read, several people still have problems with this-
but there doesn't seem to be a solution. Or am I only bad at searching? :-)
The server is a Sun running Solaris 2.6, the client is also a Sun, running
Debian linux 2.1. All client's filesystems are imported via NFS (no local
disk).
Oh, and can anybody provide me with hints on how to create a swapfile which
will be (also) mounted via NFS?
Can you give me a sample entry for /etc/fstab?
Thanks! :-)
