create a minimum liveCD that acts as an nfs server
I am a Windows user :( that has a problem :).
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: My Windows 2000 had an nfs server (Cygwin) running. My computer was replaced with a Windows XP Pro box and I had Cygwin (with nfsserver module-package) installed and setup to the exact same as on my previous box.
This setup no longer works as the nfs client cannot see the files within the directory or on the rare occbuttion when it does it cannot modify the files.
I tried other nfs servers (Xlinks's Omniservers, and MS Services for Unix) but I get the same results.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION: My solution to this might be a liveCD of any Linux distro that would boot up as an nfs server.
WHAT I NEED: -minimum liveCD with nfs server, portsmap, etc. starting up (hardware is not known for PC). -a ram drive of 64MB -the nfs server has an IP address of 10.10.10.101-255.255.255.0. -the "-msd" folder exported to the clients on 10.10.10.0-255.255.255.0 with full permission to the clients. -copy the folder "-msd-adp" form an USB flash disk (or NTFS parbreastion C:-msd-adp) to "-msd-adp" on ram drive.
Can anyone help me get started with this project? Or has anyone have such a CD that I can modify?
Hi, I'm not good at programming, but was wondering if there was a script already created, or any howto on backing up. This is what I want to do. Basically there's...
Sure. Use tar or cpio. Get more elaborate as you like. Or use prebuilt "solutions". It's not...
Any help is greatly appreciated.
