You've made sure that the FreeBSD 2.0R test machine's hostname and ip address are listed in your DNS and/or the ISC's /etc/hosts file and all that? And you don't have your FreeBSD machines hostname listed on the 127.0.0.1 line *AND* the "normal" line in /etc/hosts? I have a FreeBSD 2.0R mounting off of a NetBSD 1.0 machine and I've never seen it. Sounds to me like one of your machine sis confused about who it is or who the other machine is. Or, it is a bug that is only triggered talking to the older ISC code. -Andrew -- ========================================================== Andrew Gillham gillham@andrews.edu LAN/WAN/Netware/Unix Analyst gillham@whirlpool.com ==========================================================
