ok, I took out the rw (Which I thought meant Read-Write ;)  Now on to the
UID's :)  I thought that when I put the clients IP in, that the server
would give full permissions to who ever tried to access it from the
client.  How do I tell it which uid's to allow when they have seperate
passwd files (I was going to set this up using NIS, so should I have done
that first?)
