Hi TruGurus

I want to mount a nfs directory using a ssh tunnel.

In Linux it works like this:

1: on client:
   # rcpinfo -p nfsserver
   to get port of nfs and mount daemon

2: on client:
   # ssh -f -L 7777:nfs-server:2049 -l user nfs-server /sbin/sleep 86400

3: on client:
   # ssh -f -L 8888:nfs-server:2219 -l user nfs-server /sbin/sleep 86400

4: on client:
   # mount -t nfs -o tcp,port=7777, mountport=8888
localhost:/export-directory /mount-directory

I have no problems with steps 1 to 3 on tru64 (5.1A), but the tru64 mount
doesn't know the option mountport.
Does someone know how to mount with an unusual mountport; or any other
suggestions, how to nfs through ssh?

Thank you very much

Simon
