Dear there,

I have spent a lot of time to setup the NFS server in my FreeBSD
2.2.1-RELEASE. In the exports of linux2:

/usr -alldirs linux1

and I mount a directory /usr/home in linux1 by

mount linux2:/usr/home /usr/home

After that, I can see all the directories in /usr/home in linux1.
I can read some small files in the direcotories under /usr/home.
But when I read any larger files, or use df to see the file system
or umount this directory, the system is hung, even cannot interrupt
it by CTRL-C. At the same time, there is no problem for me to
telnet or ftp between this two machines.

Can someone tell me whats wrong here and how to complete this
NFS? By the way, how to fill the fields in /etc/fstab? What
are the meanings of Dump and PASS# ?

Any information is appreciated.


Thank you in advance!


Qin An.
