Sorry for cross posting this on drawinos-users. I was not on the darwin-kernel list as of yet. I'm running Mac OS X 10.3. My /etc/exports looks like: /Users -maproot=nobody /Library/NetBoot/NetBootSP0 -ro When I restart mountd I get: Nov 7 19:45:08 ignatz mountd[3426]: Can't change attributes for /Library/NetBoot/NetBootSP0. See 'exports' man page. Nov 7 19:45:08 ignatz mountd[3426]: Bad exports list line /Library/NetBoot/NetBootSP0 -ro If I change the order of the lines in the exports file then /Users has a problem. If /Library/NetBoot/NetBootSP0 is on a different filesystem I have no problem. The man page for exports has the following bug: The export options are tied to the local mount points in the kernel and must be non-contradictory for any exported subdirectory of the local server mount point. It is recommended that all exported directories within the same server filesystem be specified on adjacent lines going down the tree. I'm not quite sure how to interpret this bug. Does it say I can not use different options for directories exported from the same filesystem? How can I solve this export problem? This seems like a serious limitation, is this being addressed anytime soon? _______________________________________________ darwin-kernel mailing list | darwin-kernel@lists.apple.com Help/Unsubscribe/Archives: http://www.lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/darwin-kernel Do not post admin requests to the list.
