Hello,

Longtime lurker, occasional poster.  I am trying to get MacNFS to run as a client on my Quicksilver which has OS 9.2.2 and OS X 10.5.  I run Marcel Bresink's NFS Manager (Version 5.97) as a server on my MacBook Air.  I am able to connect to the server from Quicksilver OS X 10.5 via "Connect to Server" in the Finder.  However, I am unable to do so from Quicksilver OS 9.2.2.  I select NFS in the Chooser and when I try to connect I get various "MOUNTD" errors.  After several hours of troubleshooting the last two days I realized I need help.  And Knezzen, I think it might be from you as I see from past posts here and elsewhere that you were able to get it to work in the past.  So was I, just two years ago on this same set-up but there was a crash, mistakes were made, etc.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello

on your Macbook Air (server side): have you set privileges to read/write for your shared folder?

on MacOS 9.2.2: there are different versions of the NFS extension, one is patched (3.0p3) the other/others aren't. I use the unpatched version which I put manually in the extensions folder. Reboot then everything was fine.

NB: when I started using NFS I experienced various issues running the NFS installer. Manual install (just the extension) solved everything on my side...

It worked!  Thank you so much!  I spent the better part of three days trying to figure this out before knuckling under and asking for help.  Am very glad I finally asked.
