NFS help...

[Daniel Gustafsson]

Trying to set up NFS and always get the same error.
Is there something I don't understand or is there a bug ?

create /dir dka0:[nfstst]
tcpip set conf map "/vmsdisk" dka0:
tcpip add export "/vmsdisk/nfstst" /host=*

@TCPIP$NFS_startup.COM
%TCPIP-I-INFO, subsystem vfs loaded
%TCPIP-I-INFO, filesystems mapped
%TCPIP-E-NFS_BFSCAL, operation MOUNT_POINT failed on file /vmsdisk/nfstst
%TCPIP-E-BFSCAL, file system is not mapped

Help appreciated...
Trying on 7.3-2 and 8.3.

I now see this...?

$ ty dka0:[tcpip$nfs]TCPIP$MOUNTD_ALPHA1.LOG
27-Feb-2007 07:03:33 INFORMATIONAL: starting. HP TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS - MOUNT V3 V5.4-15

TCPIP> MAP "/vmsdisk" dka0

SET CONF MAP makes it permanent, MAP just does it. Has NFS-Server been enabled via TCPIP$CONFIG?

regards Kalle

[Daniel Gustafsson]

Have tried both MAP and SET CONF MAP.
Yes, NFS is enabled.

Have you checked the protections on the directory being exported?

[Daniel Gustafsson]

Yes, but I just solved one problem...

Had to add .dir to export:
add export "/vmsdisk/nfstst.dir" /host=*

I can now tcpip mount locally.

[Brian Reiter]

Strange, never had to add the .DIR extension to the export filename before.

I assume the TCPIP version is fully patched?

Hi Daniel
Are you tested TYPELESS_DIRECTORIES option when you use EXPORT command?

Saludos.
Daniel.
