I have been having some problems doing a Linux Universe 2.0 Installation
via NFS from Solaris 2.5.1 Machine. Specifically, the PC seems to be
finding the NFS
server and its 126.0.131.8:/cdrom/____________________________#1/ directory
- but
then hangs with an RPC timeout error.

I suspect that this has something to do with the way 'share' works under
Solaris 2.5.1;
I can quite happily mount the shared (exported) directory on another
Solaris machine.

Perhaps I need PCNFS on the Solaris host - or perhaps I have to define what
'nobody'
actually means ??

Any assistance appreciated. Please email me direct as well as posting.
