I just switched my private network from /etc/hosts to DNS, now NFS mounting doesn't work.
Using /etc/hosts I see in syslog: Jan 31 18:06:52 playdough mountd[211]: NFS mount of / attempted from 192.168.1.1 Jan 31 18:06:52 playdough mountd[211]: / has been mounted by 192.168.1.1 and using DNS for the same mount I see: Jan 31 18:09:30 playdough mountd[211]: NFS mount of / attempted from 192.168.1.1 Jan 31 18:09:30 playdough mountd[211]: Unauthorized access by NFS client 192.168.1.1. Jan 31 18:09:30 playdough mountd[211]: Blocked attempt of 192.168.1.1 to mount / Is it possible mountd is completely ignoring DNS? How could I check?
