SETTING UP NFS ON INTEGRITY WITH OPENVMS 8.3

[FRANK BABULJAK]

I set up a directory with all the protection open. I have set up a TCPIP MAP to it But when I try to go to it I get Mountd service not running. In the log it says operation MOUNT_POINT failed on file /dga2/marin2/mcfdtestdata. File system is not mapped.
Any help is apprieciated.

[Steven Schweda]

What did you do? What were the actual MAP
and ADD EXPORT commands? (And any others you
may have used?)

"[T]ry to go to it" how, from where?

[FRANK BABULJAK]

map "/dga2" $1$dga2: (also map config)
add export "/dga2/marin2/mcfdtestdata"
/host=* /option=name_conv
add proxy FRANKB /uid=2 /gid=2 /host=*
FRANKB is in the authorize file.
I am running NFS from my PC to Itegrity.
I am able to do NFS when I connect to our Alpha.
Thanks

Frank,

for NFS to work the PORTMAPPER service must be enabled.

HTH,
Martin

Is there any reason for the long path in the
"add export" while the "map" has only a short
path? I'm not an expert in this stuff, so I
have a simpler set-up where the paths being
mapped are the same as the paths being
exported:

TCPIP> show map
Dynamic Filesystem Map
Pathname Logical File System

/dka100 ALP$DKA100:
/dkb300 ALP$DKB300:
/dka0 ALP$DKA0:


TCPIP> show expo

File System Host name

/dka0 urt.antinode.org, [...]
/dka100 urt.antinode.org, [...]
[...]


The HELP says:

ADD

EXPORT

Adds an export entry, in the form of a UNIX path name, to the
export database for a Network File System (NFS) file system. The
path name is a name that is mapped to one of the following:
[...]


I interpret this to say that the "UNIX path
name" being exported must be "a name that is
mapped". You have tried to map one name and
export another.

And what are the maps and exports on the
Alpha?

On Integrity:

TCPIP> SH MAP
/dga2 $1$DGA2:

TCPIP> SH EXP
/dga2/marin2/mcfdtestdata *
Options: Name_cvt

TCPIP> SH PROX
FRANKB OND uid 2 gid 2 *

On Alpha: (works)

TCPIP> sh map
/dra3 $2$DRA3:
TCPIP> sh exp
/dra3/marin/testdata *
Options: Name_cvt

TCPIP> sh prox

FRANKB OND uid 4 gid 4 *

Does it work when you set it up using SYS$MANAGER:TCPIP$CONFIG ?

Does SYS$SYSDEVICE:[TCPIP$PORTM]TCPIP$PORTM_RUN.LOG have any more information on the startup failure?

Hi Frank,

You may want to try to do this:

$ tcpip sysconfig -r nfs noproxy_uid=-2 noproxy_gid=-2

Good luck.

[FRANK BABULJAK]

The problem has been solved.

Here is what I think happened.

Before we started NFS services on the Integrity we copied the authorize file from the Alpha. Which had the TCPIP$PORTM and other accounts in it. When we started the NFS sevices it did not build the sys$sysdevice:[tcpip$portm]directory. I created these directories that were missing and added in the login.com file. Then restart TCPIP and it is working now.

Thanks
