hi
apologies for the quality of the question
currently putting together a linux network (rh8) on old p1mmx 66Mb machines
i am trying to use nfs to make shared folders available to rest of netwk.
we have managed to create shared folder and mount it. however i am trying to mount that shared folder as /home on a second machine and have added to the fstab file on that second machine a line of 10.1.1.1:/home /home ngf defaults 0 3
as i reboot that machine i see an error message during the boot that says something like ...no final newline fstab.. and the machine goes on to say the mount could not take place because mount pt not found.

So add a newline after your entry in the fstab
 
> mount pt not found.
 
create a directory /home on your second machine
