Hi Richard,
portmap seems to be running:
dragonfly ~ # ps aux | grep portmap
rpc 8811 0.0 0.1 1672 684 ? Ss May02 0:00 /sbin/portmap
root 11634 0.0 0.0 1484 476 pts/0 R+ 19:59 0:00 grep portmap
dragonfly ~ #
rpcinfo looks at least reasonable:
dragonfly ~ # rpcinfo -p
program vers proto port
100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper
100000 2 udp 111 portmapper
100024 1 udp 2294 status
100024 1 tcp 1042 status
100003 2 udp 2049 nfs
100003 2 tcp 2049 nfs
100021 1 udp 2296 nlockmgr
100021 3 udp 2296 nlockmgr
100021 1 tcp 1043 nlockmgr
100021 3 tcp 1043 nlockmgr
100005 1 udp 658 mountd
100005 1 tcp 661 mountd
100005 2 udp 658 mountd
100005 2 tcp 661 mountd
100005 3 udp 658 mountd
100005 3 tcp 661 mountd
dragonfly ~ #
and the above seems to say the Gentoo server is listening on the
correct port - 2049.
I've changed the /etc/exports file a bit. Now it's this:
dragonfly ~ # cat /etc/exports
# /etc/exports: NFS file systems being exported. See exports(5).
/MusicLib 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0(async,ro)
/home/mark/MusicLib 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0(async,rw)
dragonfly ~ #
I think this means that anyone on my local home network should have
access according to the Gentoo NFS Wiki. Now I can restart NFS and
things look like they should be OK:
dragonfly ~ # exportfs -ra
dragonfly ~ # /etc/init.d/nfs restart
* Stopping NFS mountd ... [ ok ]
* Stopping NFS daemon ... [ ok ]
* Stopping NFS statd ... [ ok ]
* Starting NFS statd ... [ ok ]
* Exporting NFS directories ... [ ok ]
* Starting NFS daemon ... [ ok ]
* Starting NFS mountd ... [ ok ]
dragonfly ~ #
dragonfly ~ # exportfs
/home/mark/MusicLib
192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
/MusicLib 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
dragonfly ~ #
But still my FC2 remote machine cannot mount it:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# mount /mnt/MusicLib/
mount to NFS server 'dragonfly' failed: server is down.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]#
I know this must be a simple oversight but I just do not see it.
Thanks for answering! I do appreciate it!
Cheers,
Mark
