NFS (Almost) Freezing up

Hi Everybody,
I'm trying to setup a small home network using Slackware with NFS shares for /home. I've got /home listed in my /etc/exports file. One one Slackware box, it works great. However, on another box (a laptop), cp freezes. It mounts fine...I've tried a bunch of mount options, mount 192.168.5.1:/home /home, etc.

I don't think it's a hardware error because I can ping with no packet loss, access the web with it, etc etc...

I'm flat out of ideas...
Any idea what's going on?

Thanks,
Taj

What does your exports file on the server look like?

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. My /etc/exports looks like this:

Code:

# /etc/exports

/slackware 192.168.0.*(ro,sync)

/slackware 192.168.5.*(ro,sync)

Still no ideas...
Thanks for the help.

ro.........read only
you can't cp to/from a read only filesystem...........
post your /etc/fstab from the laptop....

Thanks for the hint...I changed it to rw and reexported, but it still freezes. Even cat fails.
