Hey all, I am working on getting a diskless cluster working and
everything seems to be fine except for one thing, but first let
me give you a breakdown of the suspects:
client - app server - file server
The client mounts /export/home as /export/home off the app
server, and the app server mounts /export/home as /export/home
off the file server. The client and the app server are running
2.2.19 kernels and testing, the file server is a 2.2.18 kernel
and redhat 6.0.
So rpc.nfsd and rpc.mountd are both being run with the
--re-export option (which is the only way I can get the client to
mount them w/o permission denied errors). My problem is that
anytime I try to read or write to /export/home on the client, I
get Stale NFS File Handle errors.
I can read/write just fine on the app server, as long as I am the
correct user. All 3 machines have the same /etc/passwd, shadow,
group except the two servers have all user accounts /bin/false
for shell, but the client has /bin/bash.
I have tried rebooting all the machines, start-stopping nfs on
the servers, tried different kernals on the app server (one w/
knfsd one w/o).
I am stumped. Any ideas?
