##Hi,

##I trying to get pc-nfs going with 386bsd. (I'm using an ne2000
##compatible card and pktd.sys, with a packetdriver). The problem is that
##I keep getting authentication-errors, the file server refuses the
##mount-request.
##I have included '/usr -root=0' in my /etc/exports file, and have
##rebooted several times since, so the file should have been read.
The following applies to BSD/386: I imagine that it would also apply
to 386bsd. (I have the former installed, but not the latter.)
(1) Make sure mountd is started with the "-n" flag. ("man mountd" for details.)
(2) Make sure that every mount point is explicitly listed in the "exports"
file. Unlike SunOS and other systems, exporting /usr does *not* mean that
a client can mount /usr/lib.
The next version of the pcnfsd sources that I push out to the archive
sites will allow you to build a BSD executable. In the meantime, if
anyone would like a BSD/386 executable, please tell me where I should FTP
it to. (Do BSD/386 executables run on 386bsd?)
