+&gt;<i> I was just recently reminded of this on a Mdv list. Is there a way to
+</I>&gt;<i> make the setting of NFS shares easier for users. Way back in Mandriva
+</I>&gt;<i> 2008 the NFS process was very well done and users would only have to
+</I>&gt;<i> establish NFS shares with other computers and the etc/fstab was properly
+</I>&gt;<i> written.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Since Mdv 2009 the process seems to have been broken and I have had to
+</I>&gt;<i> go into the fstab and change manually the pathway to from &quot;computername&quot;
+</I>&gt;<i> to &quot;ip pathway&quot;.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I had posted the fix on the MDV forums and put in a bug for this. I am
+</I>&gt;<i> not sure if my bug was not well written and maybe that is why it was
+</I>&gt;<i> never really taken up by the dev team.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> You can find the post here:
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://forum.mandriva.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=87&amp;t=113793">http://forum.mandriva.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=87&amp;t=113793</A> and you will
+</I>&gt;<i> find the process to establish NFS shares at the very bottom of the post.
+</I>&gt;<i> NOTE that the shortcut to the bugzilla no longer works.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I still use this process with MDV2010.2 and set my fstab by hand. I have
+</I>&gt;<i> 4 networked MDV boxes in the house and they all use NFS shares.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> It would be nice if this were fixed with Mageia as it would be quite an
+</I>&gt;<i> advantage from a user's point of view as this would make the setting of
+</I>&gt;<i> shares fullproof. Setting up of NFS shares could then be advertised as a
+</I>&gt;<i> positive point from a marketing point of view.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Note the the setting of NFS shares comes up constantly on helplists and
+</I>&gt;<i> most of these involve the fstab.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Marc

+while we're on the subject, imo, user accessible NFS shares could be used with
+the notification area; like it was a USB disk, then people can mount/unmount it
+easier; or perhaps less problems if network is suddenly disabled and we have
+mounted NFS hosts.
