NFS & IGNITE Problem

Hy,
I have a machine, that has started to have problems with the make_net_recovery against the ignite servers, the error it gives is:

make_net_recovery -s epsilon
* Creating NFS mount directories for configuration files.

this happens againts 3 ignite servers, the 3 of the give the same error, both client and server have the same version C.6.9.150

this is what i have tried out allready:

in the client:
restart nfs
reinstall ignite client
check lan speed: 1000auto the same as the servers
reboot the server ...
mounting nfs by hand and lauching save_config -f by hand it gives the same error

on the server:
restart nfs
rm the client conf 0x0etc, so it generates it again
rpinfo -p
showmount -e look ok
tcmpdumping on the server i get very little nfs trafic from the client:

eps:/# /usr/local/sbin/tcpdump -c 200 src host 10.132.5.91
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on lan0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 68 bytes

14:22:30.221019 IP eps.org..722378 > eps.org nfs: 140 getattr [|n
the application that runs in the box works fine, it has to be a client nfs issue but i have no ideas, any help???

THNX!

Shalom,

I still suspect networking.

Other things to check.

Hardware (cstm/mstm/xstm) the NIC card.
Network hardware.
Patching (Bi-annual, special nfs patches)

Permissions on the NFS share.

/etc/exports parameters limiting host access.

I'm having this exact same problem with Ignite after upgrading the Ignite server from 11iV2 to 11iV3. My clients can no longer mount NFS shares on the Ignite server.

Even attempting to mount NFS shares from the command line from the clients gives me the "NFS server not responding still trying"

The server logs a single message in syslog.log when a mount request is initiated:

"vmunix: WARNING: nfsauth: mountd not responding"

I have NFS_TCP=1 and MOUNTD_OPTIONS="-o proto=tcp" set on both sides of the equation. Both machines can ping and ssh to each other. Before the 11iV3 upgrade on the server, nfs worked fine. I'm stuck.
