As I posted to this list yesterday, I have been able to convert TCPIP communications 
on SLES8 under VM from VCTC over to Guest Lans.

I have Telnet, ssh, samba, ftp and apache all working happily with guest lans.

I can't seem to get nfs to mount a location on another (SLES7 with VCTC) server.  This 
is a mount that worked before going to guest lans with the SLES8 server.

The error message I get when trying to do the NFS mount is 

mount: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Unable to receive
I had updated the following files to get guest lans to work
/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-hsi0
/etc/sysconfig/network/routes
/etc/modules.conf
/etc/chandev.conf
and also the following with the new IP address:
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
/etc/samba/smb.conf
/etc/hosts
/etc/hosts.allow

It looks like rpc isn't working right.  I don't see anything in /etc/rpc (default from 
SLES8 install) that would be a problem.
and if I do ps -ax | grep rpc I get
  382 ?        S      0:00 /sbin/rpc.statd
  504 ?        SW     0:00 [rpciod]
  505 ?        S      0:00 /usr/sbin/rpc.mountd

I'm sure I've just missed something somewhere.  Anyone have any ideas?
