Setting NFS server on Fedora Core 9
I am trying to set an NFS server (for a local network) on fedora 9 I have exported the directory in /etc/exports I have started rpcbind and nfs From another computer (in this case running Ubuntu) I tried mounting the directory. After few seconds I got an error mount.nfs mount system call failed I googled for guides on NFS on fedora and it seems I did everything fine and it still does not work. Does anyone have any idea? -- Ori Idan ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il

I have checked again and made sure firewall is disabled and still get the same problem. -- Ori Idan On Thu, Jun 25, 2009 at 2:33 PM, Dotan Shavit do...@shavitos.com wrote: On Thursday 25 June 2009, Ori Idan wrote: I am trying to set an NFS server (for a local network) on fedora 9 I have exported the directory in /etc/exports I have started rpcbind and nfs From another computer (in this case running Ubuntu) I tried mounting the directory.

Re: Setting NFS server on Fedora Core 9
Ori, 1) can you post here the output of your mounting trial with verbose mode: (mount -v) ? (and the exact mount options you are using) 2) Also : can you post /etc/exports ?

Re: Setting NFS server on Fedora Core 9
Try to see that RPC is working properly the shares are really exported: from the server run: rpcinfo -p 0 (shows RPC) - check for NFS entries showmount -e 0 - check that you see the shares you expect from the client run the same commands just with the IP address of the server instead of 0 sometimes /var/log/messages on the server can be useful as well, for instance when you have permissions problems because of bad DNS configurations.

Re: Setting NFS server on Fedora Core 9
It's all working now. The problem was firewall only. -- Ori Idan On Thu, Jun 25, 2009 at 8:55 PM, Oron Peled o...@actcom.co.il wrote: On 25.06.2009 Ori Idan wrote: I am trying to set an NFS server (for a local network) on fedora 9 I have exported the directory in /etc/exports I have started rpcbind and nfs From another computer (in this case running Ubuntu) I tried mounting the directory.
