NFS responding on wrong interface
I'm having a wierd problem at one of our customer's sites. The system has multiple IP addresses bound to one NIC, eth0 and eth0:[0-3]. NFS clients can't mount NFS directories because the UDP replies are coming from addresses other than eth0. I've looked at the source for mountd.c, and there's no option to bind to a specific interface (the man pages don't have one so I went to the source to make sure that there's not an undocumented option). The system in question is running Caldera eDesktop 2.4, but I've looked at the source on SuSE 8.2 Professional and the code is largely the same. It seems to me that the return packet should show as coming from the primary interface on that network.

Re: Why are NFS permissions suddenly denied.
Jerry, This is what I had been using for the last year or so and had no issues until today. Each linux boxen is a dualboot except for one and each user has the prefix of "lnx" in front of the the machine name which is the same as the user name i.e, machine keith would be lnxkeith which is mapped to user keith.

Why are NFS permissions suddenly denied.
Hello List, I am running a home lan of mixed linux/windoze boxen. My server is a pure SuSE 7.2 with seperate partitions for /home and /public. I was trying to back up the information using BRU personal v17.0 (it kept hanging), in preparation for upgrading the server to SuSE 8.0. Prior to doing anything I umounted all linux & windoze boxen from the server while the backup was running. I decided to forget about it,as BRU kept failing to write to a tape without alot of errors, and just keep on using SuSE 7.2. However, when I went to remount all the boxen, only the windoze will mount the server. Each time I try to mount with a linux box, I get; Unable to mount...permission denied". Anyone got any clues as to what is wrong? the /etc/exports did not change The permissions on it AFAIK are the same. I can telnet or ssh into the server from ANY linux boxen. /etc/hosts.allow = ALL:192.161.1.0/255.255.255.0. Any help appreciated.

NFS Security isn't great, but it's orders of magnitude better than what passes for security on Windows systems (it would be better if people knew there's no security in Windows rather than putting faith in Microsoft's ``Kindergarten Cryptographers''). NFS security clients is probably no worse than that of the most insecure machine connecting. The biggest reason I think most people use Samba rather than NFS with Windows boxen is that it's generally easier to use, and requires less to configure on the Windows clients.

Re: NFS vs samba
(this is more theoretical knowledge than experiencial, so correct me if I'm wrong) Basically, NFS is one of those odd occurrences of poorly designed security in Unix. Functionality, however, is generally very nice if done right. Notice the quote below that neither Users or Hosts are easily authenticated. This is important because the filesystem is basically made use of as if it were local. If have something like NIS, that isn't as big a problem, but if you're not using NIS, you could have a user ID which is 501 on one box and 100 on another. Since all security is done through numbers, this would create an inconsistency between the two machines... and allow the user to access user 501's files on the other machine. Also, since the Hosts can't be authenticated, it is not difficult to make your hacker laptop look like an authorized host (by downing or unplugging a host from the network) and suddently your user 0 (root) has access to all files shared on NFS on the network, without having to know anyone else's password. How's that? Does that scare you? Granted, if you run this locally, you have the security of your lock and walls... unless you run wireless, and that isn't a lot of security anyway.

NFS Woes
Hello, I have two of my boxen on my home net using RH 8, with all the current updates. Each has nfs, nfslockd, network, xinetd running. On the first box I can mount my remote server (192.168.1.6, SuSE 7.2) without a hitch. I is using a Realtek NIC 10/100 card on an RJ45 plug, the second box always RPC time out. It uses a Realtek NIC 10/100 on a BNC coxial uplinked to a RJ45 switch box. Now, I can ping everywhere and everyone with either box. I can even ping the server (192.168.1.6) from the second, but it will not mount the exported directory on the server, while the first box will. I can mount the server from other distros on this same box (second box), but not if I use RH8. The appropriate line from /etc/fstab reads: 192.168.1.6:/public/lnx_fs nfsdefaults 0 0 (second box) (192.168.1.6:/public/lnx_fs nfsdefaults 0 0 ( first box also)) It will not mount though, Please point me in the right direction. I am a novice user and am new to RedHat, as I useother distros before this (SuSE 7.2,8, 8.1; Lycoris.

It may just be possible that these two boxes are being blocked at the exports file on the server, or by the hosts.deny file on the server. Without having access to the system it's a bit tough to crystal ball all the possibilities that would keep a client from logging into a server. Whare you should probably start looking for clues is in the /var/log/messages file on the server and on each client. What ever is going wrong should be getting logged there.
