Re: [TCLUG:3871] permission problem



It sounds like you're not exporting your user directories pproperly or
they're not mounting correctly.  What do your fstabs on both workstation
and server look like?  They ought to look something like this:
/dev/sda2 /userdrive  /mount-point	nfs	rw,soft,bg,intr 0 0
or to that effect.
