FreBSD 8

2010-07-06 Thread Grant Peel

Hi again all,

I have just installed FreeBSD 8 on my NFS server.

The older machines (FreeBSD 6.x) are able to connect to the NFS exports 
fine.


I have also installed FreeBSD 8 to two more machines, 1 is a Dell 1850, and 
the other an R200. Both of these machines had FreeBSD 6.x on them and were 
able to connect to the share with no problem.


The error I am getting is: RPCPROG_NFS: RPC: Program not registered

I have pretty much memorized the handbook with regards to NFS at this point:

On the server, (from the Handbook), all the following are in rc.conf:

rpcbind_enable=YES
nfs_server_enable=YES
mountd_flags=-r

On the Clietn(s), the following line is present:

nfs_client_enable=YES

I have tried:

nfs_reserved_port_only=YES
and
nfs_reserved_port_only=NO

which does not appear to make a difference.

also,

start nfsiod -n 4 on the client, does not seem to start (not showing in the 
process list anyways, and no console output whn I try to start it.


FYI, I can ping, ssh etc etc etc through the same IPS as the nfs 
server/client use (192.168.0.x).


If it makes any difference the Server is uing fxp ethernet, and one client 
is using em and the other bge.


I know there's something simple I am missing, but damned if I can find it. I 
had the same issue trying to connect using the live filesystem a few weeks 
back, so it seems to be something with freebsd 8. (Configuration?).


Any help appreciated,

-Grant

All,

This is now fixed, FWIW, the problem seems to be that the FreeBSD 8 NFS 
server is only usig UDP when setup as described in the handbook. The FreeBSD 
8 clients were looking for tcp. Hence the error:


[tcp] RPCPROG_NFS: RPC: Program not registered

Once I added:

nfs_server_flags=-t -u -h 192.168.0.4 -n 15

to the nfs server rc.conf, and rebooted it, the clients connected first try.

If I am still missing something, feel free to comment.
