O'Brien) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Subject: /etc/exports problem Date: 1 Apr 1996 01:14:42 GMT Organization: University of California, Davis Lines: 32 Message-ID: <4jnam2$f34@mark.ucdavis.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: nuxi.cs.ucdavis.edu X-Newsreader: TIN [UNIX 1.3 950824BETA PL0] I'm having a real problem with /etc/exports. I can export some things, but not others. Even with I use the same EXACT syntax. What in the world am I doing wrong? I've changed the order around in the /etc/exports file, but that didn't help. I've re-typed it in, that didn't help either. If I remove the "-ro relay dragon...." from the exporting of /files/exports, then it exported just fine to everyone. :-( bash# cat /etc/exports /files/treats -ro relay dragon.nuxi.com marmot.cs.ucdavis.edu /usr -ro relay dragon.nuxi.com marmot.cs.ucdavis.edu /files/exports -ro relay dragon.nuxi.com marmot.cs.ucdavis.edu bash# /bin/kill -HUP `/bin/cat /var/run/mountd.pid` bash# showmount -e Exports list on localhost: /files/treats relay.nuxi.com dragon.nuxi.com marmot.cs.ucdavis.edu /usr relay.nuxi.com dragon.nuxi.com marmot.cs.ucdavis.edu bash# tail /var/log/messages Mar 31 17:05:03 relay mountd[87]: Can't change attributes for /files/exports.
