Got that bit already thanks :-)

The DHCP bit is working fine... problems with NFS now :-(

even with a..

showmount -e localhost

...doesn't display the mounts in /etc/export

When I try and mount from the server(localhost) I get '/nfsroot failed,
reason given by server: Permission denied' on the screen, and 'refused mount
request from server.foo for /nfsroot (/): no export entry' in
/var/log/messages

I have found other people on google with this problem, but no solution :-(
I've tried rewriting /etc/export in different formats, allowing all ip
address, etc... I am running 'exportfs -ra' after making changes, and have
disabled the local firewall.

Any ideas?
