Howdy all - I am trying to mount a filesystem exported from VM to my RHEL3 Linux guest. I can see the export when I use showmount within Linux:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# showmount -e XXXX.bankofamerica.com Export list for XXXX.bankofamerica.com: /backup/linuxtdc (everyone) But when I try to mount it I get a permission error: [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# mount -t nfs XXXX.bankofamerica.com:/backup/linuxtdc /mnt/nfs/ mount: XXXX.bankofamerica.com:/backup/linuxtdc failed, reason given by server: Permission denied The fellow I'm working with on the VM side pointed me to a "Linux Backups Without Tapes" slide show by David Boyes of Sine Nomine (http://sinenomine.net/downloads/MainframeLinuxBackupsWithoutTape-20040126.pdf) where he recommends using the "cred=" parameter in /etc/fstab. I don't believe this is available in RHEL. At least I'm not familiar with it and it doesn't appear in any of the man pages for nfs, mount or fstab. Can someone point me in the direction I need to go to get my RHEL3 NFS client to connect to the VM NFS server?
