NFS

[friki]

Hi,

I need to share by NFS a directory of a host in another one. If it possible or only is allowed to share a filesystem?

In node1(server) I put directory in /etc/exports

How can i mount it en node2(client)?
What others files must modify?


Sorry about my English..

Thanks.-

directory is also part of the filesystem...right?!

Yes, you can share sub-directory of a file system as well. Just the update to exports file should do. Check out the manpage of "exports" for various available options.

OK,

Bu, What is the line to mount it in node2(client):

node1:/directory /directory nfs rw,bg,hard,intr 0 0

can i do the following:
(in node2 client)
mount node1:/directory /directory nfs rw,bg,hard,intr 0 0

How can i do?

Thanks.-

sorry

I want to say:

mount -t nfs node1:/dir /dir
I have following error:


Can't access node1:/dir: Permission denied

thanks.-

Check the permissions on /dir directory on the server. It should have atleast read/execute access for all.

From the client run:

showmount -e node1

Verify that the directory that you want to mount is listed.

You can also post the results of rpcinfo -p node1

Hi,

node1:

/dir1 permission 777

node2:

#showmount -e node1

/dir1 access:node2

node2://> # mount -t nfs node1:/dir1 /dir1

Can't access node1:/dir1: Permission denied



I continue with the problem :-(

I think that the exports file entry on the server is wrong.

It should look like:
/directory -access=node2

Then, on the client node2 do,
# mount node1:/directory /directory

This should work.

I was reviewing all less this....
