The NFS server is a netware 3.11 box with Netware NFS v1.1. I can get the server volume to mount on the 386bsd filesystem and running df gives an accurate report of the space available, but I am unable to do anything in the directory where the NFS volume is mounted. Trying to do an ls or cp'ing something into that directory just gives me a permission denied error. Doing an ls -l of the mount directory after I've mounted the volume shows the privledges as being: drwx------ 4 root 512 Sep 9 16:30 mcet1/ It would seem as if I had the proper privledges, right? Last, if I explicitly try to mount the NFS volume by hand with the command line: # mount /bsd386/@mcet1: /mcet1 (I know, I know, it should be /386bsd/ :-) ) I get a message that reads "Can't get net id for host". I can't figure out if I've got something set up incorrectly on the Netware NFS hosts's side or if the problem is somewhere in how I've configured the 386bsd system. Anyone want to offer any suggestions? -John jackson@a1.mec.mass.edu
