On my CentOS I cannot check out code anywhere on my NFS-mounted home.
svn simply does not work on the NFS. I tried other users and the same
thing happens. I've tried mounting the home directory manually, double
checked that uids and gids are correct, upgraded to subversion-1.3.2-1
and nfs utils version, checked the /etc/export file from the nfs server,
and everything looks right. I don't know why I CentOS giving me this
problem.
Thanks for your help.
