nfs mounting
I have just tried to use NFS to mount directories on one of my
Debian boxes so I can transfer things from it to another.
I set /etc/exports on the first machine to show a (ro) permission on
/ for the second machine. I tried that with and without
no_root_squash. I killed and restarted rcp.mountd between each
change in /etc/exports.
On the second machine I ran mount machine1:/ /nfs with and
without options intr and different "block" sizes.
Whatever I do the mount stays there as a foreground task but
nothing appears to ls in /nfs. showmount on the first machine
shows the mount each time.
I'm doing something wrong clearly but there's nothing diagnostic I
can see telling me what I need to change. Anyone spot the
obvious?!
TIA,
Chris
