 I've just tried to install pcbind and it conflicts with portmap...

 Yep, I'm definitely using portmap. It's installed and running fine. 

I was looking through the archives and noticed that a reply that I thought that 
I'd sent isn't there.

IIRC, I'd written that googling your problem only turned up correcting it 
through downgrading, ensuring that daemons on which nfsd depends are started 
before nfsd, or re-installing.

You could try downgrading through http://snapshot.debian.org/ or upgrading if 
there are more recent versions of nfs-common and nfs-kernel-server in unstable 
or experimental.

I've just replied to an earlier email of yours about googling for your problem.

This looks exactly like a RHEL or Fedora bug report that I read and it
was an rpcbind-related problem.

 with what kind of configuration?

I have that version running in production on stable. I've also just
duped and upgraded a VM to unstable and it's also running fine.

nfs-kernel-server and nfs-common are 1:1.2.2-4. portmap is 6.0.0-2.

Do you compile your own kernels?

Sure.  I'm running it with Sid.  Been running it for years.

There might be something else that you're running which holds the

 Yes.  Google is your friend.

 This (rpc.nfsd: writing fd to kernel failed: errno 13) search string
 produced interesting results.

 http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html


Unfortunately, I don't have access to the special version of google that Mr.
Johnson does (although mine does produce interesting results, just not
particularly helpful ones), however the point is taken and I'll backfill the
necessary information.

I've removed all entries from /etc/exports, have portmap and nfs-common
running, the firewall down, have an empty /etc/hosts.deny and a single entry
in hosts.allow (taken from the portmap man page):

portmap 192.168.

I've tried various incarnations of mountd: ALL, nfsd: ALL, etc, with no
positive results. When I attempt to start nfs-kernel-server, I get the
following output to stdout:

rpc.nfsd: writing fd to kernel failed: errno 13 (Permission denied)
rpc.nfsd: unable to set any sockets for nfsd
 failed!
server:~#

This also writes the following line to /var/log/messages:

Mar  9 01:22:26 server kernel: [220123.669684] svc: failed to register
lockdv1 RPC service (errno 13).

And the following is the output from rpcinfo:

server:~# rpcinfo -p

102   udp111  portmapper
1000241   udp  51547  status
1000241   tcp  54119  status

I'm a bit at a loss here as I've never run into any problems setting up nfs
mounts on other Unices or Linux distros. There is most likely something
fundamental I'm missing, but I just can't put my finger on it. Any help
would be appreciated. I don't usually post to mailing lists and am quite new
to Debian as a distribution, so please forgive any naiveté on my part.


Thanks,
LC

Yes.  Google is your friend.

This (rpc.nfsd: writing fd to kernel failed: errno 13) search string
produced interesting results.

http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html



Unfortunately, I don't have access to the special version of google that Mr.
Johnson does (although mine does produce interesting results, just not
particularly helpful ones), however the point is taken and I'll backfill the
necessary information.



These two links mention issues with nfs-utils-1.2.2, which seems to 
be their name for our nfs-common.

 I've removed all entries from /etc/exports, have portmap and nfs-common
 running, the firewall down, have an empty /etc/hosts.deny and a single
 entry in hosts.allow (taken from the portmap man page):


hosts.allow has it's own man page

perhaps you could try something like this for hosts.allow

nfsd: 192.168.x.y/255.255.255.255
rpcbind: 192.168.x.y/255.255.255.255
mountd: 192.168.x.y/255.255.255.255



snipped

you might also want to check your iptables
(please excuse the brevity of my response, multi-tasking)
