Hi Guys,

I'm trying my hand at setting up NFS. I have followed
the handbook and all the deamons seem to startup OK

but when I edit my /etc/exports file and load it via:
kill -HUP `cat /var/run/mountd.pid`

I get the following message:
"bad exports list line /home "

I have one line in my exports file and have tried the
following combinations without success; (Note I don't
have DNS so I am using IP addresses)

/home -alldirs 123.456.789.123
or
/home 123.456.789.123
or 
/home -alldirs -network 123.456.789.123
or
/usr/home -network 123.456.789.123

and all stations south.

When I try to mount from the client I get "Permission
denied", which I am assuming is because the exports
list is not loading.

so what am I doing wrong?

cheers

Gavin
