Can't mount HPUX 10.2 as root=machine from linux

[Rick Jones_2]

Hi Everyone,

I'm tring to mount an HPUX 10.2 (nfs v2) machine using the root option from a Suse Linux (v8.2) machine and it doesn't seem to take the root option into account and it works fine from another hpux machine.


I'm using the following to test it:


Server: exportfs -i -o root=ramsys33:ramsys00 /dummy

Both clients: mount server:/dummy /dummy


Files created using the hpux client have uid and gid of 0 but the linux machine created files have the uid and gid as "4294967294".

I'm new to Suse linux so I'm not sure if this is a limitation or not, or if I'm doing something wrong.

Any help would be appreciated -- Thanks

Rick

Make sure nfs is running on the hp box.

ps -ef | grep nfs

Make sure patches are in and you are at nfs v3 if available on 10.20

check /etc/exports for errors/issues.

exportfs -av

Can you change the version for v3 on the hpux.
Linux by default use nfsv3.


Make changes in /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf


MOUNT_VER=3
MOUNTD_VER=3

Restart the nfs server daemons.
Re-mount the file system on the linux client

REvert
