Fwd: Re: Fwd: [K12OSN] eduduntu and samba/ldap PDC

[David Trask]

I was simply forwarding what Matt sent me.   I also want to add this
though.  You'll need to add these lines:

Here's my entry in fstab (on the K12LTSP server)

10.0.0.234:/home        /home                   nfs   
defaults,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 0 0


and my exports entry  (on the Samba/LDAP server....I export to 2 K12LTSP
servers)

/home   10.0.15.253/255.255.240.0(rw,sync,no_root_squash)
/home   10.0.14.253/255.255.240.0(rw,sync,no_root_squash)
