[ale] that same darn NFS problem

[Jonathan Glass (IBB)]

Can you post /etc/exports from your nfs "server" and either /etc/fstab
or the mount command you are using on the clients?

What version of the NFS utils are you running?

Thank you

1.I removed the 2 nic cards from the server, and undid all that was did
to get 
them to work.

2. I tried to configure NFS to work. I am successful, BUT clients can
not 
write to files. When I open vi and try to edit a file, it says "write
error 
in swap file" and when I try to save it says "is your filesystem full?"

3. clients can touch and rm files. It seems as though the owner is
"nobody." 
BUT, that only happens when I am root on the client. When I am the user,
that 
problem the owner is listed correctly.
Also, when I opened a file and tried to exit the file became 0 bytes.

4. What is also weird about this problem is that  I was somehow able to 
duplicate it - even though I completely reinstalled the OS on the
server.
