Fedora 25 Upgrade. VMS will not mount the NFS export on any version.
Does the VMS client mount over UDP only? If so, that is probably the
problem. Recent nfs-utils (as used in Fedora 25) disabled UDP support by
default, as the major NFS clients have supported TCP for many years; see:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9591703/
Try editing /etc/sysconfig/nfs and adding -u to RPCNFSDARGS; that way
you should not have to mess with downgrading nfs-utils. See rpc.nfsd(8).
I tried "-V 2 -u" and the nfs server would not start.
I then tried "--udp -V 2" and the nfs server restarted and everything is
working with the newer nfs-utils.
Alternatively, perhaps you can get your VMS client to use TCP. That
would probably be better, if it works.
The TCP/IP with VMS 8.4 and later allow using TCP to mount NFS exports.
The TCP/IP with VMS 7.3/VAX requires NFS V2 and UDP.
