Error starting pfsd deamons for mounting cdrom

[Frank de Vries]

This was working before,
today I started the daemon as usual
using a start script containing:

/usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &
/usr/sbin/pfsd &

orasys@orasrv2:]/sbin/init.d<>>> ./pfs_daemon start
Starting pfs_mountd ..
Starting pfsd ..
unable to register (PFS_PROGRAM, PFS_VERSION, udp)./usr/sbin/pfsd

[orasys@orasrv2:]/sbin/init.d<>>>

What does that mean not registered ?
Very puzzled

rpcbind might not be running. But why use PFSD, when you can install rock ridge patches and mount any cds.

[Frank de Vries]

Did some research seems we have the correct
patch for this.

[root@orasrv2:]/root<>>> swlist -l product | grep PHCO_16438
PHCO_16438 1.0 PFS cumulative patch

[Arunvijai_4]

Do you have rock ridge extensions ?

PHKL_32035 , PHKL_26269, PHCO_25841
