I'm using defaults currently. But shouldn't this be sufficient to
see considerably better transfer time than I posted? I'm thinking
not to introduce more variables by changing this just yet, until I
establish whether other network probs are responsible
## NFS example:
## 192.168.0.17:/home /path nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr
exp:/ /EXP_root nfs defaults 0 0
exp:/home /EXP_home nfs defaults 0 0
exp:/var /EXP_var nfs defaults 0 0
exp:/mnt/exp /EXP_mnt_exp nfs defaults 0 0
exp:/usr /EXP_usr nfs defaults 0 0
exp:/tmp /EXP_tmp nfs defaults 0 0
