Robert,

Maybe I should rephrase the question:

What would the correct procedure be to connect a machine to an NFS share 
on another machine (local network, hardware already connected) with NFS 
using the FreeBSD(8)  Live CD (Fixit Console)?

Subject: Live Filesystem (Fixit Console) and NFS FreeBSD8

Hi all,

I had a routine disk change that we required today, thought it would 
take me

2 hours, took close to 8.

I am sure there is something I did'nt read, or do, if anyone can help me
understand I would appreciate it.

I have several machines connected to a NFS share on a local network. 
When I
put the new disk in the machine, booted it up with FreeBSD(8) Live CD, 
went

to the Fixit Console, I was unable to get the machine to connect to the
Netowrk File Share. All other machines were still connected and 
functioning.


I brought up the Clinet interface with:

ifconfig em1 inet 192.168.0.5/24

and was able to ping the NFS server with no problems.

I was also able to SSH to the NFS server no problems.

The NFS server is set to allow all hosts in the 192.168.0.0/24 network.

Here is the command line I was using on the client:

mount 192.168.0.4:/mnt /enterprise

The error I got was:

RPCPROG_NFS: RPC: Program not registered

I tried everything I could think of to get it to work, adding
nfs_client_enable=YES to a rc.conf I created in etc/, tried nfsiod -n 
4

... all that. I tried starting rpcbind etc etc.

Again, any help would be appreciated,


you need the portmapper running
you need 'nfsd'
and you need 'nfsiod'

AND you need NIS (the 'yp*' stuff) running.

All,

The client that had the new disk installed, and the data from the failing 
hard disk copied over, has no problem connecting to the share now.


For the record, the NFS server is running freebsd 5.2.1, and the client was 
using the FreeBSD 8 Live File System - Fixit console.


So the question remains, should I have been able to connect to an NFS share 
on a local network, using the FreeBSD 8 (CD Based) live file system.


If there are certain parameters I should have used, what should they have 
been?


I have searched and searched and I can find nothing that talks about 
connecting to an NFS share from a client using the Live Filesystem.


Again, any tips would be appreciated,

-Grant
