Hi, I am setting up box pigeon as an NFS server from which to install woody on box nestie via ethernet. I am attempting to make /scsidrive/woody[1..7] available for export. Box nestie isn't up at all yet, so I'm trying to test it by mounting the exported filesystem locally.
I intend for pigeon to be 192.168.1.1, nestie to be 192.168.1.2. I can ping both 127.0.0.1 and 192.168.1.0. If I try mount 127.0.0.1:/scsidrive/woody1 /mnt -t nfs it works, but if I try mount 192.168.1.1:/scsidrive/woody1 /mnt -t nfs I get "mount: RPC: Timed out". By messing with the permissions in /etc/exports or removing my entries in /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny, I can change this to a "permission denied by server" error. So some of it's working... I must have missed something, any ideas what? I have set up the following: (see below) TIA, Pigeon #/etc/networks loopnet 127.0.0.0 pigeonloft 192.168.1.0 #/etc/init.d/network #! /bin/sh ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1 route add -net 127.0.0.0 ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up route add -net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 eth0 # /etc/exports: the access control list for filesystems which may be exported # to NFS clients.
