Re: Can't mount remote path

Hi,

Are the nfs deamons running on the remote host ?

# ps -ef | grep nfs

# /sbin/init.d/nfsclient start

Hope it helps,

Re: Can't mount remote path

Is NFS Client turned on remote host? NFS Server on local host?

cat /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf
ps -ef |grep nfs

Also, a gotcha is that sometimes servers access the NFS Mount point by another IP Address (if you have 2 IP Addresses on the server). Be sure that both can be resolved to a hostname on the local host.

Share and Enjoy! Ian

Re: Can't mount remote path

Hi,

There are 2 possible things to check:
1. The "portmap" process.
2. The nfs services.

Try to reload them - than retry to mount.

Re: Can't mount remote path

Juno2,

On both servers nfs should be running.

local host nfs client + nfs server
remote host nfs client

locale ---> export dir

remote ---> import dir

Juno, Please take some time and assign points to those who have given anwers to your questions.

Kind regards,

Robert-Jan.
