Hi list, Please somebody help me. I am suffering to setup my NFS about a week!
I have some pc running RedHat 7.2. I am trying to mount directories via NFS. Does not matter what I do the error message always the same: "mount: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection refused" Here is my setup: The server IP: 192.168.7.50 The client IP: 192.168.7.51 Primary name + domain: server.blackbox.com On the server typed the following in /etc/exports : /home 192.168.7.51(rw) in /etc/host.deny : portmap:ALL lockd:ALL mountd:ALL rquotad:ALL statd:ALL in /etc/host.allow : portmap: 192.168.7.51 lockd: 192.168.7.51 rquotad: 192.168.7.51 mountd: 192.168.7.51 statd: 192.168.7.51 I updated /etc/exports, started portmapper and NFS. Everything was up and running. Pinging was Ok both way too. On the client: Portmappert and NFS was running. Made a directory for mount point: mkdir /mnt/home Wanted to mount the server "/home" directory to the client "/mnt/home" : Type the command on the client: mount server.blackbox.com:/home /mnt/home It was not work.....:-( Just the message come: "mount: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection refused" I tried to add to the client /etc/fstab: "server.blackbox.com:/home mnt nfs rw 0 0" Not help! Just the same error message ! The mount command only on the server or on the client is working well! I dont know why they couldnt communicate together. What did I miss??? I read something about "ipchains, netfilter and ipfwadm" can make some trouble but I dont know about them too much! Any help welcome!!!
