I haven't heard much about SFS; Is this basically NFS for VM? Just to eliminate some unknowns, try:
# service iptables stop # setenforce 0 and retry the mount. This will stop the firewall (iptables) and temporarily disable SELinux. It also may be helpful to look at a network trace (tcpdump) of the NFS traffic. I can shoot you a note offline on how to set this up if the above doesn't work for you. -Brad On Mon, 2007-05-14 at 13:02 -0700, Spann, Elizebeth (Betsie) wrote: > The dmesg display has no reference to 'firewall'.
