NFS on the UW servers

[Brad Emerson]

Hi all-

I've got a linux box set up on campus, running redhat 8.0, full install.  I'm
interested in accessing my homedrive on my department's server.

I've been playing with the mount command:

mount -t nfs einstein.ee.washington.edu: /mnt/ee

or excluding the type

mount einstein.ee.washington.edu: /mnt/ee

the command returns :

mount: RPC: Program not registered


Do I have to explicitly give my home directory location, or does it know to
use my homedir, like when I use scp?  When I invoke scp, the directoy point
of reference is my homedir..

Additionally, how will I authenticate?  Do I need to get ssh keys up to
 snuff? or willl it prompt me?

thanks-
brad
