Hi there. Make sure that portmapper is really running. You can, as root, on
your server, do a:
rpcinfo -p
and you should get something like this:
[root@darkforce darklord]# rpcinfo -p
program vers proto port
100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper
100000 2 udp 111 portmapper
100024 1 udp 32768 status
100024 1 tcp 32768 status
391002 2 tcp 32769 sgi_fam
100011 1 udp 968 rquotad
100011 2 udp 968 rquotad
100011 1 tcp 971 rquotad
100011 2 tcp 971 rquotad
100005 1 udp 32770 mountd
100005 1 tcp 32770 mountd
100005 2 udp 32770 mountd
100005 2 tcp 32770 mountd
100005 3 udp 32770 mountd
100005 3 tcp 32770 mountd
100003 2 udp 2049 nfs
100003 3 udp 2049 nfs
100021 1 udp 32771 nlockmgr
100021 3 udp 32771 nlockmgr
100021 4 udp 32771 nlockmgr
The important thing here is that nfs, mountd, and portmapper are included.
Now, you also want to check to see that portmapper is running on your server:
rpcinfo -p 192.168.0.1 (or whatever the ip address of your server is)
You should be able to get the same results.
Check your exports as well, with a "cat /proc/fs/nfs/exports"
Mine shows:
[root@darkforce darklord]# cat /proc/fs/nfs/exports
# Version 1.1
# Path Client(Flags) # IPs
/home/darklord/tmp darkforce2.com(rw,root_squash,async,wdelay) # 192.168.0.2
/home/darklord/tmp darkforce3.com(rw,root_squash,async,wdelay) # 192.168.0.3
Also, showmount will help:
[root@darkforce darklord]# showmount -a
All mount points on darkforce.com:
darkforce2.com:/home/darklord/tmp
darkforce3.com:/home/darklord/tmp
I had the greatest help on setting up nfs at this website:
http://www.ibiblio.org/mdw/HOWTO/NFS-HOWTO/
I very highly recommend it - Good luck!
