[gentoo-user] problem mounting NFS share

[Aaron Walker]

On my main desktop machine, I have /usr/portage exported for my mail 
server and laptop to mount.  It is working fine on the mail server (has 
been for some time now), but when I try to mount it on my laptop I get 
an error.

# /etc/init.d/nfsmount start
* Starting portmap...                   [ OK ]
* Starting NFS statd...                 [ OK ]
* Mounting NFS filesystems              [ OK ]
# mount -t nfs -o rw,hard,intr morpheus:/usr/portage /mnt/portage
mount: RPC: Program not registered
I google'd a bit, and almost every thing I found said that portmap or 
the rpc daemon's aren't running.  According to ps, both portmap and 
rpc.statd are running...

I also tried putting it in /etc/fstab, to see if nfsmount would 
automatically mount it, but to no avail.

Oh, and yes NFS in compiled into the kernel.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Aaron
