How to Configure the Damn Small NFS client
My server is running SuSE Linux 10.0 and the NFS shared directories are visible and accessible from all other SuSE computers. The problem is I can't see these shares from DSL. I downloaded DSL a week ago and have it installed on a very old laptop, it's a fairly plain install but I've changed the following to try to get access to the NFS shares.
/etc/fstab: Added the line, copied from SuSE directly Quote:

Thanks in advance. |
Be sure to start portmap first:
/etc/init.d/portmap start before starting nfs-common. It should work then. |
Many thanks
Returning to this problem some months later I stumbled across my own question and the answer provided works.
Many thanks. |
It seems I spoke too soon... The NFS share is visible in that ls shows its contents but copying to or from it from the DSL client hardly works.
To get to this stage I have installed DSL 4.4.10, modified /etc/init.d/S99bootlocal to include the lines: Quote:
I see during startup that this all works without producing error messages, and as I said the share is visible but when I try to copy files from the server share to the DSL local disk the first 16Kb copies OK, then the copy freezes. I've Googled a bit but found nothing, any clues anyone? |
Ah, ask and ye shall find... I checked other related posts and found this one:
