Filesharing issue on HPUX11.23

[Trng]

Dear Gurus,

i am trying to export a filesystem to client "war1" as read only (only this node should be able to mount) by adding entry in exports file

/backup -ro,access=war1

but from client i am getting permission denied error while issuing mount .

It is working file if i am exporting using exportfs -i -o ro,access=war1 /backup and i am able to mount from cleint .But how to add the same in /etc/exports ???


Both machines are hpux 11.23

hi,

if you change some lines, or configuration in /etc/exports you should use exportfs -av

from the clinet you can check which directories are exported with this command :

showmount -e NFS_server

Shalom,

Can you provide the exact mount command used and the exact error message?

Check that name resolution on war1 works on both server and client.

/backup -ro,access=war1.xxx.com
