- Terry & Luigi, I had the same problem recently. I chased it down to an
- export problem on the file system thatbsd was trying to mount. My memory
- on the net says "386bsd doesn't do secure NFS mount". Is that true? I
- changed my /etc/exports file of the "host system" from:
-
- /users dragon
- to:
- /users
-
- and everything now works fine! Just my $0.02 worth ...Mark
