About Service for Unix(SFU)

[Kyu-Yong Kwon]

Dear all....
I completed a SFU installation and an configuration set in the window XP.
after i completed user mapping and group mapping with Unix(hp-ux 11.0).

But window filesystem can't mount on hp-ux filesystem(11.0).

I tried the following command in Window XP.
C:\>showmount -e
Exports list on KYKWON:
/SFU All Machines

and the following command in Unix system.
#]mount 10.50.111.111:/SFU /windir
nfs mount: get_fh: 10.50.55.115:: RPC: Rpcbind failure - RPC: Timed out

how can mount window filesystem to HP-UX.
Please...Help me

Never worked on SFU. Does SFU export file system as NFS file system??

Is rpcbind running on hp-ux host??
You may want to stop and start nfs daemons.

/sbin/init.d/nfs.client stop
/sbin/init.d/nfs.core stop

/sbin/init.d/nfs.core start
/sbin/init.d/nfs.client start

rpcinfo -p "hp-ux_host" Does it list nfs programs??

thanks a lot your reply.

I tried the following command

#]rpcinfo -p unix_host

2. in UNIX
#]rpcinfo -p 10.50.111.111 #Server SFU(Window system)
rpcinfo: can't contact portmapper: RPC: Rpcbind failure - RPC: Failed (unspecified error)

[RAC_1]

/sbin/init.d/nfs.client stop
/sbin/init.d/nfs.core stop

/sbin/init.d/nfs.core start
/sbin/init.d/nfs.client start

on unix

[Kyu-Yong Kwon]

Thanks a lot.
I tried the following command.
#]/sbin/init.d/nfs.client stop
#]/sbin/init.d/nfs.core stop
#]/sbin/init.d/nfs.client start
#]/sbin/init.d/nfs.core start

after
#]mount 10.50.111.111:/SFU /windir
---------

can't mount window filesystem to HP-UX

[RAC_1]

What is the error message this time???

[Kyu-Yong Kwon]

I'm sorry late reply..

Only the same message
#]mount 10.50.111.111:/SFU /windir
nfs mount: get_fh: 10.50.55.115:: RPC: Rpcbind failure - RPC: Timed out

I think that SFU server setting incorrect

[RAC_1]

Is there a firewall between??
Can you ping/access windows server from hp-ux server??

ping "windows_server"
trcaeroute "windows_server"

[Kyu-Yong Kwon]

thanks for your help
There is no a firewall between unix and window XP

I tried ping command:
64 bytes from 10.50.55.115: icmp_seq=0. time=0. ms
64 bytes from 10.50.55.115: icmp_seq=1. time=0. ms

Which version of SFU are you running?
Do you have all of these componets installed?
-User Name Mapping Server
-Server for NFS Authentication
-Client for NFS
-Gateway for NFS (Note: Client for NFS and Gateway for NFS are mutually exclusive â only one or the other may be installed on a machine.)
-Server for NFS

I used SFU for NFS for a short period, and did not care for it preformance. We move on to NFS Maestro Server.

regards,

Mike

My experience;

SFU is a terrible product. At my company we never were able to ever get it running correctly. I agree with Mike, the Hummingbird product NFS Maestro is a far better product. We recently abandoned all of it and now use Quest Software VAS (Vintela Authentication Service). All UNIX systems are now ties into AD for single sign-on and a single point of administration.

I found the problem.
Problem was window XP fire-wall....ã  ,.ã  ;;;

filesystem was mounted on HP-UX after Window XP fire-wall unchecking .

Thank a lot for yours help.......
