I have an nfs share between two Ubuntu servers that I need to get working again. It was set up by our IT chap who is currently traveling to Japan.
I've googled and found instructions on how to set up both ends and it all looks correct but when I try to mount the share (on either of two clients) I just get the message that it failed to mount. The exports file looks like: /media/sdb1 192.168.0.1/24(rw,sync) Previously it had a specific ip address for the client, and I've also tried adding "no_root_squash" option. ( also had the ip address set to 0.0 as that seemed more logical, but no effect). I've restarted the kernel service and portmap on the server Client has fstab entry: 192.168.0.215/media/sdb1 /mnt/company nfs rw,hard,intr 0 0 I've restarted the nfs-common and portmap services on the client. I can ping the server so that works. I'm now at the end of my "ken". Any ideas? Perhaps on what to research next? Kerry.
