NFS not authenticating after upgrading processor

John Jimenez — Fri, 09 Mar 2007 12:53:45 GMT

Yesterday we upgraded our server from an RP7410 to a RP7420. I went into sam and turned on nfs and exported the files. But now all 4 sql servers are using reflections 10 and are only able to connect with ananymous user but not with any real users. The programs that read only ran fine, but any programs that need to write will not becuase ananymous has no write permissions.

Is there anything that I can check on the server side that might be causing this problem?

I upgraded one of the servers to reflections client 14.0.2. This version has many more options. Is anyone familiar with this version, that might know what are the best setting to use?

You should check the /etc/exports file from before your upgrade. There were probably some options specified there that need to be set on the rp7420.

Patrick,

The files matched okay. Thanks for the suggestion though.

I found the issue. /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf file was not set like the other one. I changed the pcnfs_server from 0 to 1. Does it take affect immidiatly? the books talking about updating the fstab

You would have to stop / start NFS services in order for the PCNFS daemon to start.

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

# /sbin/init.d/nfs.client start
# /sbin/init.d/nfs.server start
# /sbin/init.d/nfs.core start

Keep UIDs and GIDs consistent.
