NFS Mount on Client Error

KPS — Tue, 08 Feb 2005 09:37:45 GMT

Hi,

I'm trying to NFS Mount a filesystem from one server to the other. I export successfuly on the source with exportfs -a

When I get over to the client and try to mount the filesystem with:

mount :/u11 /u11

I get the following error:

mount: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection refused

Can anyone tell me what this is complaining about?

Thanks in advance...

-Ken

see if portmap service is running
service portmap status

if it's stopped you should start it with
service portmap start

I'm all set on this....

I figured out why this was happening. NFS Service wasn't started on server source.

Thanks,
