Hi everbody!. When I try to mount a remote directory over NFS, I get an error messege something like this :" mountd no registered to rpc" (not exactly but like that).
I have previously run portmap, "rpc.nfsd" and "rpc.mountd", with no errors, I also chequed the /etc/rpc file and it seems ok (mountd is in it, with a corresponding port number,...). What is the difference between "kernel-nfs" (as setup while recompiling the kernel) and non kernel NFS?. If I have kernel-nfs do I not need rpc.nfsd ?. To mount a remote dir (on a client side) do I need rpc.nfsd running? or is that only to export the file system?. Sorry to accumulate so many questions!, but I would like to get it clear, since the man pages don`t throw much light on these aspects (yes, I have read the man pages, but they only seem to tell you how to configure each thiny, but not when to use them and in conjunction with whom!). Thanks a lot for your help. Best regards to all, Mark.
