Keywords: Networks Message-ID: <1790@brazos.Rice.edu> Date: 27 Sep 89 21:43:19 GMT Sender: root@rice.edu Organization: Sun-Spots Lines: 18 Approved: Sun-Spots@rice.edu X-Sun-Spots-Digest: Volume 8, Issue 144, message 4 of 7 When you set up the server to provide clients with access to certain directories, you have the following line in /etc/exports: /vlsi access=clients but we found that it doesn't work! We have to state: /vlsi -access=vlsi4 (i.e., vlsi4 is a specific machine; note the "-" required.) Now, this limits us to only allowing a single client access to the directory /vlsi ! Is there some kind of client file for a server, which the manual has forgot to tell us about? Gary L.
