Hi,


Hmm, setup ...

Now, I'm trying to mount a directory from linuxbox onto pc1 ....

I have checked according to the 'nag' for NFS prerequisites:


[21][ root@linuxbox: ~/
# cat /proc/filesystems
        minix
        ext2
        msdos
nodev   proc
nodev   nfs
nodev   smbfs
        iso9660
        xenix
        sysv
        coherent
        hpfs


and ...

[13][ root@pc1: ~/
# cat /proc/filesystems
        minix
        ext2
        msdos
nodev   proc
nodev   nfs
        iso9660
        xenix
        sysv
        coherent


The necessary daemons, started from /etc/rc.f/inet2 are running on both boxes

[27][ root@linuxbox: ~/
#  ps x
  PID TTY STAT  TIME COMMAND
    1  ?  S     0:00 init [5]                  
    6  ?  S     0:00 (update)
    7  ?  S     0:00 update (bdflush)
   34  ?  S     0:00 /usr/sbin/crond -l10
   50  ?  S     0:00 /usr/sbin/syslogd
   52  ?  S     0:00 /usr/sbin/klogd
   56  ?  S     0:00 /usr/sbin/inetd
   58  ?  S     0:00 /usr/sbin/routed -g -s
   60  ?  S     0:00 /usr/sbin/rwhod -t -s

   76 v01 S     0:00 -bash
   77 v02 S     0:00 -bash

and

[14][ root@pc1: ~/
# ps x
  PID TTY STAT  TIME COMMAND
    1  ?  S     0:00 init [5]

    7  ?  S     0:00 update (bdflush)
   49  ?  S     0:00 /usr/sbin/crond -l10
   65  ?  S     0:00 /usr/sbin/syslogd
   67  ?  S     0:00 /usr/sbin/klogd
   71  ?  S     0:00 /usr/sbin/inetd
   73  ?  S     0:00 /usr/sbin/routed -g -s
   75  ?  S     0:00 /usr/sbin/lpd
   78  ?  S     0:00 /usr/sbin/rpc.mountd

 * The exports file of the host from which I want to nfs mount has ...

#linuxbox.cqu.edu.au:/etc/exports
# See exports(5) for a description.
# This file contains a list of all directories exported to other computers.
# It is used by rpc.nfsd and rpc.mountd.

/usr/local/src/fly8	pc1.nse.com.au(rw)



 * Yet, when I try to  manually  nfs mount  linuxbox:/usr/local/src/fly8 from
 * pc1.nse.com.au I get:

[20][ root@pc1: ~/
# mount -t nfs linuxbox:/usr/local/src/fly8 /usr/local/testnfs
mount: linuxbox:/usr/local/src/fly8 failed, reason given by server: Permission denied


What alarms me even more is that I cannot nfs mount a la localhost ;)

[22][ root@linuxbox: ~/
# md /tmp/nfstest
[23][ root@linuxbox: ~/
# mount localhost:/etc /tmp/nfstest
mount: localhost:/etc failed, reason given by server: Permission denied


or ...

[24][ root@linuxbox: ~/
# mount linuxbox.cqu.edu.au:/etc /tmp/nfstest
mount: linuxbox.cqu.edu.au:/etc failed, reason given by server: Permission denied

Could someone please enlighten my as to possibly why?  Have I missed anything?

TIA,

	Rob -
