hi divakaran
first of all check the whether u can ping between the m/c which u wanna configure for
NFS, if they're not, then make entry of them in ur /etc/hosts file on both the side or
clients
install the knfsd**.rpm or nfsd*.rpm
verify portmap is installed on both of them or not
# rpm -qa|grep portmap
Now, after installing the rpm of knfsd or nfsd create the export file which contains
the path of the share & relative rights.
ON the server side
lets share the /home/temp directory (say)
#vi /etc/exports
/home/temp hostname1(rw,no_root_squash) hostname2(r,no_root_squash) ....
where r->read,w->write & no_root_squash -> not letting have the root privilege to the
clients hostname1 & hostname2
then
#exportfs -a (exporting the filesystem)
#/etc/rc.d/init.d/nfsd or knfsd restart
on the client side
$ mount -t nfs servername:/home/temp /mnt/export
where servername is the name where u made the share
/home/temp -----the share name on the server
/mnt/export-----the mount directory
thats it
let me know if it works
