syslog 2

Francois Bariselle_3 — Fri, 11 Jan 2002 16:29:14 GMT

I have a 10.20 HP-UX
When looking in /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log, the following message appears:

Jan 11 10:18:44 sirius vmunix: NFS server canopus.davie.ca not responding still trying

What is it

Thanks in advance,

the server has an NFS mount, probably /etc/fstab trying to mount from that server but it can't reach it, or NFS on the server is not running

This message appears when my server is running and NFS is active !!!

Have you left pfs_mount running?

What about some unknown nfs attempts out to other boxes?

I would say to look at the second option first.

Hi,

It's looking for an NFS server for a possible connection. You can stop NFS services if u r not using it.

# /sbin/init.d/nfs.client stop
# /sbin/init.d/nfs.server stop

See this for info:
