FW: nfs questions

This is a summary of responses for my question about nfs problems.

My problem was that I did not have read/write access to a remote mounted
filesystem. I received responses from several people, including:
        Dr. Tom Blinn
        Tony McElhill
        Armin Ollig
        Frank Wortner
        Lucio Chiappetti
        and Olle Eriksson

Basically, all the above suggested different variations of suggestions for
editing the /etc/exports file. The problem was that I had written the file
entry incorrectly the first time, and I was not successfully rescanning the
file. I was attempting to use the nfsd restart command, when in fact I
needed the showmount -e command to get the file rescanned. This seems to
have resolved the problem.

I'm embarassed, but I'm grateful for the rapid and useful help.
