Quote:> mount kauai

mount: can't get address for nfs-server.kauai

What does can't get address mean on my linux system?
How can I fix it?

I am running caldera 2.3, red hat 6.1, and
mandrake 6.??
I can't get nfs working from any of them to
any others.

I figured it out.
/etc/fstab
had:
nfs-server.kauai:/  /mnt/kauai nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,hard
but it should be:
kauai:/  /mnt/kauai nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,hard

The instructions it had had nfs-server. in front,
and I thought it was a service, not a machine name.
