I am using linux 2.0.18 clean install slackware. NFS worked before I
installed
DNS stuff. Now with DNS running I get result error "13" from rpc.cfsd
(access errors) when I try to write to an NFS mounted directory.
/etc/exports has for my home network:
/home/silentm (rw)
The client is mount rw as well.
I did the following:
1) tar'ed up all DNS files. rebooted to seperate partition with 1.2.13
still installed. untarred the files. reboot again the activate DNS.
got exactly the same situation where NFS directory was READ
ONLY.
2) tried to take out DNS under 1.2.13 and after some time (I dont
know exactly what the magic was) but the NFS directory finally
came back as writable.
conclusions: this is not a 2.0 kernel problem but I dont know what to do
next. I tried to back out DNS from the 2.0 kernel but I couldnt find the
magic that allowed mf NFS directory to be writable.
how do I find out why NFS is not allowing me write access? GID and UID
are the same on both computers.
Any help is appreciated.
Jerry
