    NFS browsing and mounting

    I cant seem to mount NFS shares from my powerbook running panther. The server is running linux and the NFS setup is working. I confirmed this by being able to mount it on a seperate linux machine.

    Code:
    /etc/exports:
    
    /home     192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0(rw,no_root_squash,sync)
    The IP of the server is 192.168.1.101 and the IP of my laptop is 192.168.1.100.

    $sudo mount 192.168.1.101:/home /mnt
    mount_nfs: /mnt: Operation not permitted

    Any ideas?

    Take a look at this:

    Let us know if it works.

    In case this might help others in the future.

    As of today, 11/22/05, there are two methods that will work when using Linux NFS as server:

    EITHER use the Apple Terminal and type the command:

    $ sudo mount_nfs -P <server>:/<share> <client_path>/<client_dir>

    OR re-export the Linux server by editing the /etc/exports file and replacing/adding the 'secure' option with 'insecure', i.e.:

    /<share> *(rw,sync,no_root_squash,insecure)

    By using the later method, you can then use the <command-k> [Connect to Server] GUI in the Finder 'Go' menu.

    Hope this helps!
