I have one dedicated Windows 95 machine. I d/led all the packages from one of your mirror sites and I am trying to get NFS install work. First of all, my '95 box is ip 129.29.29.29 and my future FreeBSD box I have decided will be 129.29.29.30 I setup kernel and all, and I select packages and basic stuff. I go to NFS installation and enter "129.29.29.29:/D:/FreeBSD" because the packages are contained on my windows 95 box on drive D..It then takes me to network configuration. I enter a hostname, domain, for gateway I put 129.29.29.29 (my 95 box) and nameserver I put 129.29.29.29 . For IP Address I put 129.29.29.30 and netmask is 255.255.255.0 . No extra config options. It then starts mounting drives. My problem occurs here. when I go to Alt-F2 I see DEBUG: Generating /etc/fstab file NFS Portmap: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Unable to send then I have to ctrl-c the whole process.. I'm very stuck and would greatly appreciate any help that can be offered. Thanks for your time and I hope to hear from someone. -Scott G. scottg@thuntek.net
