nfs mount problems

[Ben Wilson_4]

I know I had a rough weekend, but I have no idea what the problem is here:

# cd /export
[(root) @ hbgwhse (/export)]
# ls -p
shared_roots/ webtouch/ webtouch_dev/
[(root) @ hbgwhse (/export)]
# ll
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 3 root sys 96 Jul 6 2001 shared_roots
drwxr-xr-x 2 root sys 96 Nov 11 15:56 webtouch
drwxr-xr-x 3 root sys 96 Nov 10 16:01 webtouch_dev
[(root) @ hbgwhse (/export)]
# /usr/sbin/mount -F nfs -o rw,suid,soft webtouch.ns1.networkservices.net:/ /export/webtouch/
nfs mount: mount_nfs: mount: /export/webtouch: No such file or directory
[(root) @ hbgwhse (/export)]


I tried different directories, but with the same result, mount claims the local target doesn't exist. Although this is the first NFS mount on the host, all the service appear to be running, and I do see the request on the target...

Seeking enlightenment,
Ben

Hi Ben,

Could you do
#cd /export/webtouch
#ls -la

and a

#bdf .

Regards

Robert-Jan.

Hi Ben,

Check the following files:

/etc/mnttab (Is it already mounted?)
/etc/fstab (Mounting at boot-time?)
/etc/xtab (Is /export/webtouch exported from this system already?)

Rgds,
Jeff

I just created the webtouch directory to create this mount. I tried creating a directory on / and in /var with the same "No such file or directory".

I figure something is wrong with mount of nfs, but I really have no idea what.

Thanks,
Ben
