Should be

Since the output from showmount is from the response
from mountd, it would appear to be working (10.1.1.1:/tmp is exported).

Excuse me.

Thankyou all for such prompt replies.




I have confirmed that portmap, mountd and nfs are all reported as running by
rpcinfo, just like it says in the faq.


I have concentrated on the server first.

What I have done: Exactly what the faq says for setting up NFS. I have added
a line in /etc/exports

/tmp  -all dirs -maproot=user1 -network=10.1.1.1 -mask=255.255.255.0

and restarted mountd.

showmount -e lists the export correctly, corresponding to the exports file
in the /etc/exports file. Since the output rom rpcinfo is from the response
from mountd, it would appear to be working (10.1.1.1:/tmp is exported).

showmount -a does not show anything though; does this only show what is
actually mounted, not just exported?

So, still on the server, I tried mounting 10.1.1.1:/tmp but nfs_mount
returned "Permission denied." That was with just the mount command- as
suggested by lilit-aibolit - allowing mount to select the
filesystem-specific program itself.

I should be able to mount an NFS on the server it is exported from shouldn't
I? I'm pretty sure I've done this before, though maybe not on OpenBSD.

HELO.

I am following http://openbsd.org/faq/faq6.html#NFS  and have the server
running, and showmount shows an export but on the client when I get to the
line in the faq

# mount -t nfs 10.0.0.1:/work /mnt

and adapt it to the setup I have here I get the message

RPC: Program not registered


I did a bit of searching but couldnbt find anything for OpenBSD about this.
Everything else in the faq has worked fine.
What am I doing wrong?

Giridhari


.

try mount without "-t nfs"
also be sure /mnt is created on clinet
also try "sudo mount"
