Hello, I had a really fine working configuration with Ubuntu-Server as firewall and NFS-Server for LAN-Clients (Ubuntu, Mac OSX). Pulling even very large files from the Ubuntu-server to Mac-Clients worked reliable and really fast! Since the Server-version was very old (5.04 Hoary Hedgehog) and no more updates were available I had to do something. Yesterday I reinstalled (no upgrade) the Ubuntu-Server (Dapper Drake 6.06 LTS) and added a dedicated firewall - so now the NFS-Server is in the DMZ.
Now I can not any longer use the NFS-Shares from the Mac-Clients, although I copied the /etc/exports exactly from the old server and did not change anything on the clients side. Mounting the share with "sudo mount -t nfs -o P,3,r16384,w16384 mail:/ mnt/daten daten" gives me the mountpoint on the client and I can browse the files on the server - but after a short period (seconds) the NFS-connection breaks and is no more accessible. I used and use nfs-kernel-server and export the files using "insecure" (needed by OSX). So there are three questions now: 1. Did anything change in the NFS-Server from Hoary to Dapper? 2. Could it be, that due to the router/firewall in between these troubles occur? (its BSD-based, m0n0wall) 3. How can such NFS-problems tracked down from the serverside - is there a "debug"-option in NFS with verbose output to a log? TIA for any hints - Ingo. P.S. May be usefull: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /etc/exports # /etc/exports: the access control list for filesystems which may be exported # to NFS clients.
