[Sussex] Re: Setting up a simple home network

[Alan Delaney]

OK, quick update.

My /etc/exports file now reads:


/home/public/ shrineofthebeard.homenet(rw)


And /etc/hosts.allow now reads:


shrineofthebeard.homenet


(this one is a complete guess!).  Now when I type "mount -t
templeofthebeard.homenet:/home/public /home/public" on the 
client I get


mount: templeofthebeard.homenet:/home/public failed, reason 
given by server: Permission denied


Which is better than what I got before but not there yet. 
/home/pubic does have global read/write permissions so I 
don't know why the server would deny permission.  Perhaps I 
need to tell something that I've altered the /etc/exports or 
/etc/hosts.allow files?  I tried restarting rpc.mountd and 
rpc.nfsd (again a complete guess) but no joy and the man 
page for exports doesn't specify if any daemons need to be 
restarted if the file is modified.
