Hey Peter,

Here's /etc/fstab on the workstation:

[root@meitner /root]# cat /etc/fstab
/dev/hda1       /                       ext2    defaults        1  1
/dev/hda5       swap                    swap    defaults        0  0
/dev/fd0        /mnt/floppy             ext2    noauto          0  0
none            /proc                   proc    defaults        0  0
thales:/home    /home   nfs  user,exec,dev,suid,rw,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 1
1

Here's /etc/fstab on the server:

[root@thales wilson]# cat /etc/fstab
/dev/sda1       /                       ext2    defaults        1  1
/dev/sda11      /home                   ext2    defaults        1  2
/dev/sda7       /tmp                    ext2    defaults        1  2
/dev/sda8       /usr                    ext2    defaults        1  2
/dev/sda9       /usr/local/windows      ext2    defaults        1  2
/dev/sda10      /usr/src                ext2    defaults        1  2
/dev/sda6       /var                    ext2    defaults        1  2
/dev/sda5       swap                    swap    defaults        0  0
/dev/fd0        /mnt/floppy             ext2    noauto          0  0
/dev/cdrom      /mnt/cdrom              iso9660 noauto,ro       0  0
none            /proc                   proc    defaults        0  0

The /etc/exports file looks like:

[root@thales wilson]# cat /etc/exports
/mnt/cdrom (ro)  
/home (rw,insecure)  #  Users' home directories
/usr/local (ro)  

Thanks for any insight you can give.

-Tim
