Hi,
I'm trying to export a directory which has an exclamation mark in it:
"/data/!To Sort/". Any idea how to do this? NFS doesn't like the
exclamation mark.
(yes, I know it would be easiest to just rename the directory, but
unfortunately I don't have control of that part, and I can't change
it.)
Cheers! thanks in advance!

Why do you say NFS doesn't like it?
If you are doing it from a unix command line, the shell might not
let it through. NFS is pretty careful not to make unnecessary
restrictions, though it must live with restrictions in the OS on
both ends.
What OS, version, etc., are you using on both ends?
