login NFSv3 disk

Hello,
I changed my linux system NFS server to NFSv3.
I can mount the exported disks by the linux system on HP-UX 10.20 and HP-UX 11.00 systems
with vers=3 option.
If a user, which home is on the linux exported disk, tries to "rlogin" on a HP-UX 10.20 system, the process hangs up between the quotas checking and the write of the copyright.
There is no problem for rloging to HP-UX 11.00
system.
Any ideas ?
Thanks
Jerome

Hi Blanche,


As far as I know NFS v3 was not supported until 10.30.
This may be causing the problem.

Rgds,

Hi Jerome:

Some points:

1) Install the latest NFS patches for 10.20
2) Check /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf file. Check the following parameters:

MOUNT_VER=2 or MOUNT_VER=3
--> This controls the default NFS Version used by the NFS Client mount command.


MOUNTD_VER=2 or MOUNTD_VER=3
--> This controls whether or not the NFS Server will support NFS Version 3. If MOUNTD_VER=3 and an incoming mount request is for NFS PV2, the mountd will service the NFS PV2 request.

Read this document too:

Jeff: 10.20 supports NFS version 3

HTH,

Re: login NFSv3 disk

Hi Jeff,

NFSv3 is working well on my HP-UX 10.20 system with the good patches.
I have a lot of NFSv3 disks mount from all other Unix systems (solaris,True64,AIX,IRIX,..)
and that's OK.

My linux system is running under
Suse , kernel 2.4.18

Thanks

Re: login NFSv3 disk

1. Apply the NFS patch for 10.20

2.Check the entry for the users in /etc/passwd for correct home directory on HP-UX 10.20 machine.

3. Check the permission of NFS exported file systems for users.

Re: login NFSv3 disk

I stand corrected.
I misread/misinterpreted the docs - which state "Starting with HP-UX ver 10.30, NFS version 3 has been used by DEFAULT."

Sorry - in the immortal words of Roseanne Rosanandana, "Never Mind."
