Problem mounting filesystem over NFS

[Johan den Boer]

Hi,

I try to mount a remote filesystem on my HP
server. I get the following error message

mount: ns03421 server not responding: RPC_PROG_NOT_REGISTERED

Does anyone know what this means.

thank you

Hi,

NFSD should register itself with the RPC deamon when starting up:
check out man rcpinfo for details.

Stopping and starting NFS will be the fastest way to resolv your problem.
(/sbin/init.d/nfs.server stop/start)


regards,

Gideon

Check in /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf on your NFS-Server if NFS_SERVER is set to 1.

Then
/sbin/init.d/nfs.server start

Hope this helps.

Chances are pretty good that your NFS server is NOT running. try rpcinfo -p host and check if nfs is registered with rpc..probably not. so start it with /sbin/init.d/nfs.server start.

Hi,

The following lines must be added to the /etc/inetd.conf file on the
NFS server:

rpc dgram udp wait root /usr/etc/rpc.rstatd 100001 1-3 rpc.rstatd
rpc dgram udp wait root /usr/etc/rpc.rusersd 100002 1-2 rpc.rusersd
rpc dgram udp wait root /usr/etc/rpc.mountd 100005 1 rpc.mountd -e
rpc dgram udp wait root /usr/etc/rpc.rwalld 100008 1 rpc.rwalld
rpc dgram udp wait root /usr/etc/rpc.sprayd 100012 1 rpc.sprayd

Once these lines are added, inetd(1M) must be restarted by typing:

/etc/inetd -c
