Does this sound like a problem with RiscBSD or is it my unix knowledge and or 
Linux box?


I am trying to mount an NFS directory which resides on my Linux box. 
I have the network up and running. I have used xhost on the linux box to allow 
access to the riscpc. I have made sure that the correct entry is in /etc/exports
(I think). 

I used /usr/local/sbin/rcm to say that I want to mount an NFS drive. It seems to
be ok. I can even run a "mount -a" without any error messages. 

However when I try doing an ls on the mountpoint I get a "permission denied" 
error. (Yes I did a "chmod a+rwx" on both mounted directory and the mount 
point). 

(Yes I rebooted both systems several times)

PS I don't think the instructions I printed out stressed how useful 
/usr/local/sbin/rcm  is. It made things quite easy - though not as easy as with 
the graphical sys admin tools on the Linux box.

My System: SA RiscPC. 20Mb Ram, 1Mb VRAM, RiscBSD 1.2, Atomwide Ether 3, Kernel
47something. (I want to use my CD Rom drive because I burnt a Golddisk copy of 
the ftp site).
