>it needs to be made dependable on sunrpc package, which provides portmap.
Nerijus,
Please use the Cygwin mailing list for questions/comments - others may have problems similar to yours.
OK, I'm cc'ing to it, but I am not subscribed.
That said: the entry for nfs-server in setup.ini already indicates an install-time dependency on sunrpc. If this is being missed somehow, it may indicate a problem with setup.exe (or the format of the nfs-server setup.hint file).
I ran setup.exe, selected nfs-server and a few other unrelated packages (links, squid), but it didn't select and install sunrpc. So yes, it may be a problem with setup.exe.
Did you have trouble downloading/installing nfs-server, or was the problem with getting it set up after download and install? The nfs-server-config script should install portmap, mountd, and nfsd as Windows services, with the appropriate startup dependencies.
After selecting sunrpc manually and installing it, nfs-server-config installed all 3 services succesfully, but I cannot mount from neither Sun nor HP box, both give me for the first time:
# mount -F nfs 172.31.1.38:/tmp /c nfs mount: mount: /c: No such file or directory
Retrying:
# mount -F nfs 172.31.1.38:/tmp /c nfs mount: mount: /c: Stale NFS file handle
Latest cygwin, w2k, FAT, /etc/exports:
/tmp (ro,all_squash)
