Package: nfs-kernel-server
Version: 1.0.10-6+etch.1
A tmpfs filesystem looks like not mountable via NFS. The server returns
a "Permission denied" if I try to.
In my /etc/fstab I entered:
none /mnt/EPG tmpfs size=50m,mode=777 0 0
and mounted the filesystem using
mount /mnt/EPG
In /etc/exports I used:
/mnt/EPG
*(rw,all_squash,async,nohide,no_subtree_check,anongid=1000,anonuid=1000)
After restarting the nfs-kernel-server, trying to mount the filesystem
with
mount 10.0.0.5:/mnt/EPG /mnt/test
the error-message
mount: 10.0.0.5:/mnt/EPG failed, reason given by server: Access denied.
is returned.
Both directories (on the server and on the client) do have permissions
777. If I unmount the tmpfs-filesystem and try to mount the nfs-export
it works (this is then an ext3)
I'm using debian etch, linux-image-2.6.18-5-amd64,
2.6.18.dfsg.1-16.
Any ideas? Thanks!

This is a kernel issue, but it is not a bug. There are lots of things tmpfs
are not designed to do -- including being NFS exported.
