I deleted the unnecessary line from the /etc/exports file and rebooted both machines. Connecting from the client to the server using an /sbin/mount_nfs 192.168.0.244:/usr/home1 /home1 command took forever . . . well, somewhere between a half-hour and an hour. It used to be speedy. Nothing

Do you have anything relating to RPC connections inbound on the server logs? It may also be time to look at which version of FBSD you are running. On 20 April 2010 19:06, pe...@vfemail.net wrote: I deleted the unnecessary line from the /etc/exports file and rebooted both machines.

I have two servers funning FreeBSD. For the past four years, an: /sbin/mount_nfs 192.168.0.244:/usr/home1 /home1 command has successfully allowed one server access to data on the other server's hard drive. This morning, following reboots of both servers, the mount_nsf command fails,

192.168.0.244's /etc/exports file says: /usr/home1 -maproot=root 192.168.0.252 /usr/home1 -maproot=root 192.168.0.253 192.168.0.252 is the machine that should have access to 192.168.0.244's drive, but was having difficulty obtaining it. I'm kind of surprised to see the entry
