HP-UX 11.00 NFS Client and RedHat Enterprise 3.0 NFS Server

[Pelikan]

Hallo,

im running a RedHat Enterprise Server 3.0 as
NIS and NFS Server (actually updated).

On my HP-UX Client
HP-UX B.11.00 U 9000/785 (td)
i use nfs version 2. The $HOME Directories are located on the RH 3.0 NFS Server and mounted.

I have trouble with CATIA 424 :
The Users LPFK Palettes are not available.
Trying to store new ones (they are stored in the users $HOME), I get the message :
Keyboard not stored, USR File Error :
Reserved Member.

I have read/write permissions in this directory; touch, cp, vi, ... is no problem.

In case, the users $HOME Directory is local on the HP machine, there is no error.
I think it's just a NFS Problem between HP-UX
and Red Hat AS 3.0. With the old
NIS/NFS Server (RedHat 7.1) everything in this case was working fine.

Any help ?

Hi,

Perhaps use tusc of the CATIA process to find out what file is open that is generating the error?

Nettl / Ethereal / tcpdump trace of the network link during the tusc?

Hope that helps,

Upgrade the HP-UX server to the latest NFS with the latest patches. NFS 3 has been standard for years and thats probably what Red Hat Enterprise 3.0 uses.

The reason they've probably done this is because NFS 2 had major performance and security problems.

Use NFS and 11.00

You will find 75 NFS patches for 11.00. Are they installed?

I have updated the HP-UX 11.00 Machine with the Quality Pack from March/2004.

It's still the same problem...

Are there any options on the NFS Server in the exports File needed? At the moment it looks like :

/home hp01(rw,sync,no_root_squash,insecure)

Thanks !
