Tom
After executing sudo exportfs -raw I got the response:
exporting *:/media/...cfe3
After editing /etc/fstab I did the sudo mount -a -t nfs and got an error
message:
"mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 127.0.0.1:/"
showmount -e gives the export list for cic2ext.
sudo mount gives all the mounts including the nfs mounted on proc.
ls /ted-nfs gives nothing.
You are welcome to access this machine remotely -- things would go a lot
faster.
Thanks -- Ted Hilts
