I am rather new to these Apollo's, but have been managing Sun's for quite some time now... Is it possible to mount NFS disks onto the DN10000. I have looked in the man pages and see that it is possible to remote mount the DN10000 disks, but I want to mount the disks from my Convex C210 onto my Apollo. After looking around I've found /etc/nfsd, but no corresponding /etc/biod. Is Apollo's offering of NFS only a one way deal? Thanx!

Domain NFS is definitely a two-way street. Rather than /etc/biod,
you need to run /etc/mountd, /etc/nfsd, and /etc/portmap. I suggest
you look at:
Using NFS on the Domain Network (0104140A00).
As far as remote mounts from the dn10000 go, you really don't need
to run any demons. We have run mounts in both directions between
a Sequent Symmetry and a dn10000 with no problems.

NFS is a two way deal. The NFS manual is the best NFS manual I have seen yet. I used the Apollo NFS manual to set up some Suns a while ago. Please refer to you manual to see how to get it running. If you do not have the manuals, please ask you salesman where they are. If the product is not performing like the manual states it should, please take advantage of your service contract and call for software help. x x x -- UUCP: uunet!hi-csc!apcimsp!tim ARPA: tim@apollo.com Contents of this message has nothing to do with work.
