Non-technical users don't need to run into weird issues when they do an 
update and they don't have the understanding to know what caused them or 
whether rebooting is necessary.  For those that do have the technical 
understanding, there are easy ways to update without rebooting.

I think he may be suffering from "typos".  Note that in a previous post he 
mentioned his exports file contained:

/nfs4exports/home1 
192.168.2.0/24(rw,sync,insecure,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check)

I suspect he created the directory /nfs4exports/home1 and then subsequently 
edited his exports file
and removed the "1".

Right, you still haven't answered what is possibly the most important 
question.  Where is the directory that you want to share located on your

I wouldn't believe that.  There's been a hell of a lot of advocacy
(that I don't agree with) that you should always reboot after updates.

The notion of only rebooting when you really need it has gone right out
the window, to be replaced by the Windows-centric thinking that it's
easier just to reboot rather than assess whether it's really necessary.

You have copied/pasted in error.

You pasted "etc]# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-service=rpc-bind "

You want

firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-service=rpc-bind

I know I am late to the party.  I have a new VM install of F31.  So, with that 
in mind "f31K" is the server
and "meimei" is the client.

*BEFORE*

[root@f31k etc]# firewall-cmd --get-active-zones
public
  interfaces: enp1s0

[root@f31k etc]# firewall-cmd --info-zone=public
public (active)
  target: default
  icmp-block-inversion: no
  interfaces: enp1s0
  sources:
  services: dhcpv6-client mdns ssh
  ports:
  protocols:
  masquerade: no
  forward-ports:
  source-ports:
  icmp-blocks:
  rich rules:

I have no services enabled or running other than the default.  (I will not use 
nfs3)

So..

[root@f31k etc]# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-service=nfs
success
[root@f31k etc]# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-service=mountd
success
[root@f31k etc]# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-service=rpc-bind
success
[root@f31k etc]# firewall-cmd --runtime-to-permanent
success
[root@f31k etc]# firewall-cmd --reload
success

*NOW AFTER*

[root@f31k ~]# firewall-cmd --info-zone=public
public (active)
  target: default
  icmp-block-inversion: no
  interfaces: enp1s0
  sources:
  services: dhcpv6-client mdns mountd nfs rpc-bind ssh
  ports:
  protocols:
  masquerade: no
  forward-ports:
  source-ports:
  icmp-blocks:
  rich rules:

I entered what I need in "exports".  So, here we go

[root@f31k ~]# cat /etc/exports
/home/egreshko  192.168.0.0/16(rw,sync,insecure,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check)
/home/egreshko  
2001:B030:112F:::/56(rw,sync,insecure,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check)

[root@f31k ~]# exportfs -a
[root@f31k ~]#

Enable and start the nfs-server in one go.  This will enable any other services 
needed by nfs-server

[root@f31k ~]# systemctl --now enable nfs-server
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/nfs-server.service 
→ /usr/lib/systemd/system/nfs-server.service.

Then on the client.

[root@meimei ~]# showmount -e f31k
Export list for f31k:
/home/egreshko 2001:B030:112F:::/56,192.168.0.0/16

[root@meimei ~]# mount f31k:/home/egreshko /mnt
Created symlink /run/systemd/system/remote-fs.target.wants/rpc-statd.service → 
/usr/lib/systemd/system/rpc-statd.service.
[root@meimei ~]#

And.

[root@meimei ~]# mount f31k:/home/egreshko /mnt
[root@meimei ~]# ls /mnt
Desktop  Documents  Downloads  flash  Music  Pictures  Public  Templates  Videos

Done

As Tim said, this should be:

Any firewall issues would be on the server, not the client side.  On the 
server you could try running "systemctl firewalld stop" to test that.  I 
don't know if NFS is default enabled, but probably not.

I did not think it would help but there's always someone who suggests

Well I am lost in the Firewalld GUI  with connections and zones, 
permanent seems obvious, but I will have to learn more there. However 
I've changed nothing in Firewalld in this computer and it did work 
through the firewall just a few days ago, as I said I tried stopping it 
and setting selinux to permissive, neither made any difference.

Thank-you, George.
I tried finding a USB3 flash stick at the local walmart.  (My 
workstation has USB3 ports as well as USB2 ports.  The incremental 
back-ups are taking a lot of time using the USB2 sticks/ports.)  They 
had USB2 sticks only.  Once I've bought USB3 sticks in the right size 
range, I'll give that a try.


I get the impression from the silence on my first question (better 
testing of the stick) that there is nothing.  So I'm tagging this thread 
"CLOSED".


Bill.

You're not seeing anything that says "allow NFS", which means that it's
blocked. The services line shows what should be let through.

Last I heard that was a design choice so I wouldn't expect it to be
"fixed". I use KDE and it doesn't affect me, but you can always update
from the command line using dnf and avoid this.

NFS not connecting -

2019-12-07 Thread Bob Goodwin

.

Due to failure of a 3TB Seagate hard drive (DOM 28 April 2019) i am 
rebuilding the server again, this time with no backup to refer to. I am 
trying to work from references found searching google, my notes were in 
the server. I think what I have should work even if not optimal but /am 
unable to get connected from this client which has always worked with 
the NFS.

/

/I have tried the various checks/rests and so far the only thing that 
looks significant Is:

/

[bobg@Workstation-1 ~]$ showmount -e 192.168.2.128
clnt_create: RPC: Unable to receive

This computer's fstab has the line:   192.168.2.128:home1 /media/nfs    
nfs4 rw,soft,intr,fg,comment=systemd.automount  0 0


And at the server exports is:

[bobg@NFS-Server ~]$ cat /etc/exports
/nfs4exports/home1 
192.168.2.0/24(rw,sync,insecure,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check)


/nfs4exports/data

My mount command:  [root@Workstation-1 bobg]# mount 192.168.2.128:home1  
/media/nfs


Also, ssh and sftp both work from this box and from the NFS box, both 
are updated Fedora31 systems.  i am uncertain of what should be in fstab 
and exports but planned on refining that once things work.


Help, suggestions please?

update not working correctly

2019-12-07 Thread John Mellor
I update my desktop machine every few days, normally using the Gnome 
software tool from the updates tab.  This is a fast i7 with a good SSD 
and 32GB of memory, and it normally boots to login in about 5 seconds.


As an aside, for some weird reason way beyond what makes sense on a 
machine with an inode-based filesystem, the Gnome software tool has a 
problem where it almost always wants to reboot to apply the changes.  
That's an inconvenience that I assume that the Gnome people are fixing 
some day.  I don;t know if there is a bug tracking that more minor issue.


However, there is a more serious issue.  Starting with Fedora 31, there 
are really good odds that the reboot does a grub hard stop with a 
message about a corrupt compressed file.  I have to reboot manually 
several times, and eventually it comes up just as if nothing was wrong.


This says to me that there is something either incorrectly async in the 
updater, or there is a missing state check in the update reboot 
sequence.  Is anyone else having this issue?

Updated with the update to f31.


It's possible, but I don't think that updating the package updates the 
parts embedded on the hard drive.  There should be some way to check the 
version from the boot menu to see if the version there matches the 
installed version.
