NFSD not terminating when run

[Kevin Busque]

I have read through every man page and HP's doc on NFS. I have check the nfsconf file and everythign is fine. when I run /sbin/init.d/nfs.server start everything looks great, says it is starting up assigns PID's and everything. Except for NFSD ( no pid assigned ) It gives no errors messages on the screen. In var adm there are few errors messages as follows: Oct 3 11:52:28 ignite /usr/sbin/nfsd[2020]: Cannot get address for transport tcp host \1 service nfsd
Oct 3 11:52:28 ignite /usr/sbin/nfsd[2020]: Cannot establish NFS service over tcp: transport setup problem.
Oct 3 11:52:28 ignite /usr/sbin/nfsd[2021]: netdir_getbyname (transport udp, host/serv \1/nfsd), Bad file number
Oct 3 11:52:28 ignite /usr/sbin/nfsd[2021]: Cannot establish NFS service over udp: bind problem. Exiting.
Oct 3 11:52:28 ignite /usr/sbin/nfsd[2026]: netdir_getbyname (transport udp, host/serv \1/nfsd), Bad file number
Oct 3 11:52:28 ignite /usr/sbin/nfsd[2026]: Cannot establish NFS service over udp: bind problem. Exiting.
any thoughts on this? TIA!

Sorry that should say TERMINATING when run. Otherwise I would not have a problem ;)

Hi Kevin,

Check your /etc/services file. Does it have a entry for nfsd and does it look like this.

nfsd 2049/UDP
nfsd-keepalive 1110/udp
nfsd-status 1110/tcp

Hope this helps.

thanks

Thanks Sanjay, however my services file looked exactly as you described. Still trying to figure this thing out.

It looks like it is attempting to run NFS/TCP version 3. Do you have an entry in nfsconf that says NFS_TCP=1? If so, do you have an entry in services that says:
nfsd 2049/udp # NFS remote file system
nfsd 2049/tcp # NFS remote file system

Is this something that recently cropped up? Did you add some new software recently?
A little background might help.

Kevin,

Check your /etc/netconfig file. Default config file looks like this.

udp tpi_clts v inet udp /dev/udp -
tcp tpi_cots_ord v inet tcp /dev/tcp -
ticlts tpi_clts v loopback - /dev/tlclts libstraddr.1
ticots tpi_cots v loopback - /dev/tlcots libstraddr.1
ticotsord tpi_cots_ord v loopback - /dev/tlcotsod libstraddr.1

didn't have NFS_TCP=1 in the conf file. Added it and restarted nfs.server and still the samething. The system is a factor ignited box running 11.i it's a brand new A500. I haven't added any software to it other than the ignite-ux packages. Hope this info helps. This thing is drving me bananas!
