I'm sticking with nfs for now since its just about working perfectly,
does anyone know why I have to restart
/etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server
before mounting the shares on my clients?
If I don't, I get something like this displayed on the client machine:
"mount.nfs server denied access"
A quick hack would be to just restart this script just before the log in
comes up, what is the last start up script that is executed?
/etc/init.d/rcS
Didn't work, the machine required a press of enter to boot, I couldn't
read the error since braille was not yet loaded.
Thanks for any help,
