Eben,

Thanks for ideas. I've got it working. A google search turned up someone
in the UK who was having the same problem with Suse 9.1

Maybe it isn't so much a problem as a warning msg. Someplace someone (been
through so much I've forgotten) mentioned that nfs was originally written
for upd.

What threw me off was that when I do the following--

server export: /mnt P4-1(ro, ...
   where /mnt has folders floppy, cdrom, winc, wind, wine
     the winc, wind, wine folders being the windows vfat partitions

client mount: mount PIII-1:/mnt /mnt/PIII-1

   I see the folders as expected, but no subdirectories

This coupled with the "falling back to udp" msg led me to believe it had
failed.

When I export each "win" folder, and mount each of them on the other
machine I see all their subdirectories. I still get the "falling back"
msg, but it seems to work correctly.

Don
