Hello, I had thought I finally got NFS under SLIP to work, but now it turns out, I can read, but not write to the remote drive! This is not a permissions problem as I have the same group and user ID on both systems (at home and on the NFS server) and the disk is exported and mounted as rw. Also, I can make a file, it just happens to be 0 bytes long :-( Here what I tried (while being in the remote directory): heller 42 cpu> cp timetable.rtf ~/tmp ....this one worked just fine heller 43 cpu> cp ~/tmp/timetable.rtf xxx cp: xxx: Invalid argument ....here it took for ever. heller 44 cpu> ll -rw-r----- 1 heller user 36434 Sep 25 19:08 timetable.rtf -rw-r----- 1 heller user 0 Sep 26 08:45 xxx And on the console I get the following errors: NFS write failed for server bern: RPC: Timed out 235e0000 235e0000 235e0000 235e0000 The entry in my fstab (in NetInfo) looks like: bern:/Users /Net nfs rw,mnttimeo=120,retry=10,timeo=100,retrans=10,intr,soft,wsize=1536,rsize=1536 ,bg,net,noquota 0 0 .....(all in one line, of course) Hoping to do the right and also a good thing, but not really knowing what I was doing, I changed the rsize and wsize to the same value as my MTU, which is given by my server. Any help and hints are greatly appreciated, thanks a lot in advance, -- Servus, Helmut (W9/DH0MAD) ______________NeXT-mail preferred________________ heller@lisboa.ks.uiuc.edu "Knowledge must be gathered and cannot be given" FAX: (217)244-6078 ZEN, one of BLAKES7 Phone: (217)244-6914 ------------------------------------------------- Helmut Heller, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Beckman Institute Theoretical Biophysics Group, Room 3143, MC 251
