Dear David
Your mentioning of NFS came just at the moment that I am trying to connect my
BL2 with my Suse 9.0 box.
I have setup the Suse box as NFS server and inserted the lines for the server
in the fstab of the BL2 box
bigone:/home /bigone/home nfs defaults 0 0

The mount points are there and I think it should be working.
Pinging works without packet loss.
How do I start the connection between the two computers?
