I've got two machines, both running Kubuntu 7.10, one set up as a NFS server and the other as a NFS client. Both have the same user defined with the same UID and GID and the mount point on the server is owned by that user. The line in the client side /etc/fstab is as follows:
It seems to mount without a problem both automatically if the server is on when the client starts, or manually if I turn the server on after the client has booted.
I'm trying to do a simple copy of one or more files from the client to the server, but I consistently get an error that it can't copy the files. The files appear on the server side, but are always empty. Any ideas of what might be going on? I'll admit right now that I'm a bit ignorant about the use of NFS so any pointers are greatly appreciated.
