Not me....99% Nick H...1% me.

I don't know if most people know it, but without Nick and a few others tirelessly helping users out here, this forum wouldn't be nearly as valuable a resource as it is.

@Nick...In case you don't hear it enough...kudos for doing what you do.

Hi

Not run it on 7.1, but should work out of the box

e.g

mount -t nfs 192.168.1.6:/opt/ltsp /mnt

192.168.1.6 is remote server

/opt/ltsp is remote directory that has been shared/exported

/mnt is local mount point

Hi,

already done. It was not a question about how to use nfs. the shared folder is already mounted on other hosts.
Anyway the error message for the above command is:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on 10.150.0.6:/firewall,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
(for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might
need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program)

In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so.

And mount.nfs is not there (and in any package)

Thanks,
a.

Do you need to install nfs-utils first?

I thought so:
