NFS Server cannot be mounted
I am trying to use a Knoppix system as an NFS server.
I have edited /etc/exports with the directory:
/mnt-system *(sync,no_subtree_check)
I've tried starting/restarting services:
Code:
/etc/init.d/rpcbind restart
/etc/init.d/nfs-common restart
/etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart
/etc/init.d/portmap restart
/etc/init.d/inetutils-inetd restart
exportfs -ra
But the clients always simply timeout after a couple of minutes trying to mount.
Showmount suggests a possible problem:
Code:
# showmount -e
clnt_create: RPC: Program not registered
What is needed to get NFS servers going on Knoppix (7.0.4)?
Thanks.
Everything works for me with 7.0.5
I downloaded the 7.0.5 DVD to use instead of the 7.0.4 DVD
Everything works as expected now. Thanks for confirming which services and options are needed to get NFS server working.
I don't know why my 7.0.4 DVD download had problems with NFS. I have verified the integrity of the files involved, so it's not a simple data error.
I will stop using the 7.0.4 now. Hopefully things will run smoothly now!
Thanks again for your help.
