Hi,
I have got a Laptop running Arch Linux and a Macbook. I have got a wireless network via my broadband router and get acccess both laptops remotely via ssh and sftp.
I have been trying to set up NFS on both laptops with th intention of backing up one laptop to the other.
I have installed the necessary file on both the laptops and have also set up the exports file as per instructions on the Arch Linux wiki.
However when I try to mount the remote directory on the macbook to my linux laptop, I get the following message.
Code:
[sam@sony ~]$ sudo mount 192.168.0.3:/Users/sam /mnt/macbook_sam/ -v

Sorry, try again.

mount: no type was given - I'll assume nfs because of the colon

mount.nfs: mount(2): Permission denied
mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 192.168.0.3:/Users/sam
I am bit of a noob and can't really understand what the error message means.
Any help, please
