Hi there, After upgrading my server to latest stable release of gentoo, none of my clients is able to mount any nfs share from the server anymore.
Symptoms: $ mount -v -t nfs poseidon:/datadisk/ /mnt/gentoo/ mount.nfs: timeout set for Sun Jun 29 19:33:40 2014 mount.nfs: trying text-based options 'vers=4,addr=192.168.1.6,clientaddr=192.168.1.2' mount.nfs: mount(2): Protocol not supported mount.nfs: trying text-based options 'addr=192.168.1.6' mount.nfs: prog 100003, trying vers=3, prot=6 mount.nfs: trying 192.168.1.6 prog 100003 vers 3 prot TCP port 2049 mount.nfs: prog 100005, trying vers=3, prot=17 mount.nfs: trying 192.168.1.6 prog 100005 vers 3 prot UDP port 60058 mount.nfs: mount(2): Stale NFS file handle mount.nfs: trying text-based options 'vers=4,addr=192.168.1.6,clientaddr=192.168.1.2' mount.nfs: mount(2): Protocol not supported mount.nfs: trying text-based options 'addr=192.168.1.6' mount.nfs: prog 100003, trying vers=3, prot=6 mount.nfs: trying 192.168.1.6 prog 100003 vers 3 prot TCP port 2049 mount.nfs: prog 100005, trying vers=3, prot=17 mount.nfs: trying 192.168.1.6 prog 100005 vers 3 prot UDP port 60058 mount.nfs: mount(2): Stale NFS file handle [...] mount.nfs: Connection timed out $ [Poseidon is my server at 192.168.1.6, the client is at 192.168.1.2] Server disk to be exported is a ~9TB raid array with XFS. I'm using nfs3 with ACL and no idmapd; nfs4+ is not compiled into kernel (neither on client nor on server); Why it is trying nfs4 first as seen in the log above I don't know. nfs-utils has been compiled with USE=-nfsv4 Server has kernel version 3.12.21-gentoo-r1and net-fs/nfs-utils-1.2.9 installed. As both clients and server are not accessable from outside, no firewalls are installed. What I checked: /etc/exports: /datadisk 192.168.1.0/24(rw,async,subtree_check) portmapper, nfs-services are running normal, as far I can see. Does anyone have any suggestion? Thanks, Alex
