List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi Guys I'm trying to install Debian on a Cobalt Raq2, this is installed using NFS running on a remote server, but am having problems with NFS. I can't even mount an NFS drive locally. I'm running RH8.0, and nfs-utils 1.0.6. I've got the following entries in my /etc/export file /nfsroot 192.168.17.0/255.255.255.0(ro) /mnt/nfsroot 192.168.17.0/255.255.255.0(ro) My hosts.allow and hosts.deny are completely empty, I assume this allows everyone and anyone access. I have also disabled my firewall, iptables during testing. When I run 'showmount -e localhost', nothing is returned :-( I am running 'exportfs -ra' after making changes to /etc/exports. Running 'rpcinfo -p' produces the following.... program vers proto port 100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper 100000 2 udp 111 portmapper 100024 1 udp 32768 status 100024 1 tcp 32768 status 391002 2 tcp 32769 sgi_fam 100011 1 udp 849 rquotad 100011 2 udp 849 rquotad 100003 2 udp 2049 nfs 100003 3 udp 2049 nfs 100021 1 udp 32788 nlockmgr 100021 3 udp 32788 nlockmgr 100021 4 udp 32788 nlockmgr 100005 1 udp 867 mountd 100005 1 tcp 870 mountd 100005 2 udp 867 mountd 100005 2 tcp 870 mountd 100005 3 udp 867 mountd 100005 3 tcp 870 mountd When I try to mount an NFS drive (even locally), I get the following error on the screen... # mount paris:/nfsroot /tmp/test mount: paris:/nfsroot failed, reason given by server: Permission denied In /var/log/messages, I get...

Sorry this post is long... has anyone got any useful suggestions? Gareth ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
