I am having some problem with setting up a diskless system. I have the bootptab and tftpboot stuff all setup ok, BUT, whenever it tried to mount it's remote root filesystem, it failed. I started to look at the /etc/exports file and the /var/log/messages file and spotted some errors. The diskless systems name is pc4. It's swap should be on 'antares:/diskless/swapfs/swap.<ip>' It's root should be on 'antares:/diskless/rootfs/pc4' /etc/exports is below: ---- / altair.kcis.com /diskless/swapfs -maproot=0:0 deneb.kcis.com /diskless/rootfs/pc4 -maproot=0:0 deneb.kcis.com ---- AND /var/log/messages file get this: ---- .... mountd[78]: Can't change attributes for /diskless/rootfs/pc4. .... mountd[78]: Bad exports list line /diskless/rootfs/pc4 ---- I tried removing ' -maproot=0:0 deneb.kcis.com' from both lines aswell as only single lines. It still got the same message info. The permissions for /diskless are 777 The permissions for /diskless/* are 777 Any help would be good. Jerry
