Hey.. am new to the list.. just installed fedora yesterday and am having 
a play with it on my home network..

I've installed fedora under vmware and after a few initial problems with 
the network which I think were down to vmware and not fedora.. have have 
it running and all seems well so far! :) just looks like my RH9 install 
really..

I've run into one problem though.. when trying to mount a remote nfs 
export with:

mount -t nfs 192.168.0.1:/home/filestore /home/filestore

I get a "permission denied" message from the server.. which is strange 
as it works from my RH9 machine..

the /etc/exports on the server were:

/home/filestore 192.168.0.1/255.255.0.0(no_root_squash,rw)

and I realised that vmware had given fedora an ip of 192.168.44.128 
(vmwares idea of bridged network)

I added:

/home/filestore 192.168.44.128/255.255.255.0(insecure,no_root_squash,rw)

to /etc/exports but this hasn't worked either..

any ideas?

Cheers

Craig
