Re: mount nfs from freebsd 7: protocol not supported
Now that you have it working, if you are doing more then just playing a bit with it please be sure to use a TCP mount and not a UDP mount. Particularly between FreeBSD 7 and any recent DragonFly. A DragonFly client is capable of queueing upwards of 50+ RPCs to the server concurrently and UDP mounts will blow up (basically throw data away due to the socket buffers not being anywhere near large enough, causing stalls).

mount nfs from freebsd 7: protocol not supported
Hi all, There has been a lot of NFS changes recently so maybe its related. I can mount an NFS share on the DF box, but when I try to mount it from FBSD 7 it gives me: mount_nfs: /usr/local/www/aubill/public/invoices: Protocol not supported Any ideas? My nfs server flags are -t -u -n 4 Petr
Re: mount nfs from freebsd 7: protocol not supported
Are you using NFSv4? As far as I know we don't support it; only v2 and v3. No, I tried(on the FBSD box) using mount_nfs -2, mount_nfs -3 practically everything but cant get past the error. Interestingly when i do try to mount it, it showmounts shows that its mounted. This problem is really really urgent. Petr
Re: mount nfs from freebsd 7: protocol not supported
So I changed the server to only serve TCP clients. And I ran this on the client: mount_nfs -3 -T xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:/usr/aubill/invoices /usr/local/www/aubill/public/invoices And now im getting this: nfs server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:/usr/aubill/invoices: not responding it keeps repeating itself and I cant kill the mount_nfs process!
