This'll set your machine up as an NFS server. As I understand it you
want to be a client of the NFS server running on the RH machine, right?
Modify your /etc/fstab, it should contain a line that goes something
like this:
server:/usr/local/pub /pub nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr
then run 'mount /pub' as root. Voila, you should have 'ls /pub' show the
contents of /usr/local/pub on the servr (RH) machine.
Consult the nfs manpage to find out more (man nfs).

Getting a SCSI chain working is perfectly simple if you remember that there
must be exactly three terminations: one on one end of the cable, one on the
far end, and the goat, terminated over the SCSI chain with a silver-handled
knife whilst burning *black* candles.
