    Where is the NFS server log? Also, if it is mounting localhost1 onto localhost2 that gets the error message, which computer is it that "denies access"? I would think it should be localhost2.

    At long last, I'm back! :rolleyes: Experiment #1: "Does it only happen after you've rebooted the MOFI?" Yes. I shut down both computers while leaving MOFI on. Then I booted localhost2 followed localhost1. When both were up, I did the mount command for localhost1 onto localhost2 and then the...

    Old friends meet again! (1) "If you boot localhost1 before localhost2 is the problem reversed?" -- Yes. (2) "I would use 'localhost2' instead of 'localhost2.lan' in your mount command." -- I'll try it. Might have to wait awhile--my wife has a project going on localhost2. (3) "Also check the...

    Sorry to bother you again, but I thought I'd mention something curious and see what the explanation might be. First, here are two conditions that precede the curious event: (1) To do our normal, everyday computer work, we need a directory of localhost2 mounted on localhost1 and a directory of...

    My LinkSys router is "Wireless-G 2.4 GHz Broadband Router 54 Mbps." I turn the wireless off because I like everything hard-wired. That's how I always used it.. My reason for checking the feasibility of using it as a second router in addition to MOFI is that it would be the router connected by...

    Okay, I'll try 0 and blank. Can you believe it? I've thought of another question. :rolleyes: Instead of running MOFI's ethernet cable to the Netgear switch, I run it to my (beloved, formerly used, and never giving any trouble) LinkSys router? Then would I not be able to make all the settings...

    I like the idea of turning off the lease time. You made a strong case that "0h" would do it. Do you think there would be any danger in leaving the line blank?

    Yes, magicJack is the third device plugged into the Netgear switch. Where was my brain? Something else strange has occurred. Unless there is a lightning storm, we never shut the computers down. Also, a directory of localhost1 is always mounted in localhost2. This morning, the mount was no...

    Something appeared on MOFI's DHCP's page!! It's a third entry in the "Active Leases" box: Hostname: it's just a question mark -- "?" IP Address: 192.168.10.84 (unknown to me) MAC-address: 6c:33:a9:74:02:4c (unknown to me) The ethernet cable from MOFI goes into a Netgear switch. Ethernet...

    Well, my three "MOFI problems" have been solved, thanks to you, Colin! :) Just two closing questions: You said you found the manual for the MOFI router I have. I haven't been able to do that. Would you be able to attach a copy to an email and send it to me? SNB has my email (somewhere) from...

    Yes, everything worked as you said. I booted up into Windows and made sure I had the same Local Area Connection windows that you posted. Then I shut the computer off, power cycled MOFI, and brought Windows back up. I opened MOFI's dashboard and looked at the DHCP page. The "Static Leases" window...

    Good stuff indeed! The Tremeloes became one of my favorite groups the first time I heard them. But now my age comes out--the first time I heard them was 1967! (I was a sophomore at Northern Illinois University.) The Tremeloes followed with "Silence is Golden," also in 1967--better than the Four...

    It worked exactly as you described! Thanks again! I only did it for localhost1, but localhost2 was on during the whole process. The "Active Leases" box now has localhost1 present with my new IP. However, the entry for localhost2 in "Active Leases" is now missing. My guess is that it is because...

    Before I try this again, here are a few comments/questions. (1) I deleted the entry I put in "Static Leases" for localhost1. The "Static Leases" box is now empty. (2) The missing two entries, localhost1 (192.168.10.188) and localhost2 (192.168.10.100), in the "Active Leases" box I mentioned...

    Yes, the router was set up to include power cycle capability in the house. I've often rebooted that way instead of using "Reboot" in the menu. I'm embarrassed that I didn't try the power cycle for this emergency. I guess I just assumed there was no difference between the two methods to reboot...
