I use unstable which I update everyday. I have big issues with NFS. I had it working around christmas, and I havent touched the config since then. Now it doesnt work.
I have used webmin to manage my exports.
The signs of trouble:
1. Just the directories are visable when i go to /net/mycompuer from Solaris.
2. Updating the config in webmin, saving, and trying to restart gives the following:
rpc.nfsd: no process killed
sh: /etc/init.d/netstd_nfs: No such file or directory
sh: /etc/init.d/netstd_nfs: No such file or directory
3. I manually stop nfs-common, nfs-kernel... ,nfs-user...sh: /etc/init.d/netstd_nfs: No such file or directory
sh: /etc/init.d/netstd_nfs: No such file or directory
And start nfs-common and nfs-kernel-server which gives:
Something about sync and async which has changed from previous versions, assuming sync.
Only the directories are visable.
4. I do a nfs-kernel-server stop, and start the nfs-user-server. The directories are not visable, get a error message NFS gattr failed for .... (RPC: Authentication error).
5. I start both kernel and user server, the dirs are readable but no files are listed.
Hide filesystem i set to no.
I have no idea to solve this. Does anyone have any suggestions?
