I have a linux box exporting an nfs mount. I have a mac os X
that I want to mount a directory, in /var/log/messages on the
linux box it says

nfsd: request from insecure port

Anyone know how to fix this? Does this mean the mac is using
a port below 1024? And if so, can I tell the mac to use a secure
port?

thanks

Eric

man exports

You can use 'insecure' option in /etc/exports to allow connections from
ports > 1024.
