(The `-o tcp' is because the path between the two machines runs over a SLIP connection and NFS/UDP needs packets larger than SLIP can support.) It worked beautifully. This weekend I upgraded the 1.1.5.1 machine to run FreeBSD-2.1.0. I've got almost everything back in working order again, except now when I try that mount command I get: Cannot MNT RPC: RPC: Program not registered What program isn't registered? Registered where? The NFS/TCP server on the 2.0 machine? Remember that the 2.0 machine hasn't been changed at all since it last worked from FreeBSD-1.1.5.1 -- hell, it hasn't even been booted since then! So what changed? I tried looking through the way mount works in 2.1.0 to see if I could figure out what the difference might be, but that code is completely different between 1.1.5.1 and 2.1.0 (as you might well expect), so I haven't a clue what's going on. Can someone point me in the right direction? -- Alan Bawden Alan@LCS.MIT.EDU 617/492-7274 06BF9EB8FC4CFC24DC75BDAE3BB25C4B
