Hi! I was up until recently using a pure LVM for my storage, and today switched it to a LVM + 3x loose partitions as a AUFS - and now my previously fine NFS-setup stopped working. I read that using NFS-mounts as a branch of the AUFS could be a problem, but nothing about exporting an AUFS using NFS.
The setup is like this: * datamania, storage server with AUFS and the NFS export: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ifconfig|grep 'inet addr'|head -1 inet addr:192.168.0.3 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ grep /storage /proc/mounts none /storage aufs rw,xino=/vault/sdd/.aufs.xino,br:/vault/sdd=rw:/vault/sda=rw:/vault/hdc=rw:/vault/lvm=rw 0 0 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ grep ^/storage/music /var/lib/nfs/etab /storage/music gullars(rw,async,wdelay,hide,nocrossmnt,secure,root_squash,no_all_squash,subtree_check,secure_locks,acl,mapping=identity,anonuid=65534,anongid=65534) [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ getent hosts gullars 192.168.0.2 gullars [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -ld /storage/{,music} drwxrwxrwx 31 daxxar storage 104 2007-02-26 00:03 /storage/ drwxrwxrwx 440 daxxar storage 6 2007-02-25 20:26 /storage/music * gullars, the server trying to mount the nfs: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ifconfig|grep 'inet addr'|head -1 inet addr:192.168.0.2 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ getent hosts datamania 192.168.0.3 datamania [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ grep ^datamania /etc/fstab datamania:/storage/music /mnt/music nfs auto,soft,intr,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,async,nfsvers=3,tcp 0 2 * now, trying to mount: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo mount /mnt/music mount: datamania:/storage/music failed, reason given by server: Permission denied * checking logs: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ tail -n 1 /var/log/daemon.log Feb 26 04:39:23 localhost mountd[5094]: authenticated mount request from gullars:926 for /storage/music (/storage/music) No errors, no nothing. Anyone know what could cause this? I could be wrong in assuming this is something related to aufs, but it worked fine up until I switched. :-) Thanks in advance! Kindest regards, Jørgen P.
