Hi, I am setting up (tryin at least) a nfs mount on a remote machine, there's a firewall in between so I asked the net administrator to open ports 111 and 2049 on the server.
/etc/exports on the server is /home/username/ CLIENT_IP(ro,sync) mount command is mount -v -t nfs REMOTE_IP:/home/username/ /local/mount/point I got this error: mount.nfs: timeout set for Mon Feb 27 11:28:00 2012 mount.nfs: trying text-based options 'vers=4,addr=REMOTE_IP,clientaddr=CLIENT_IP' mount.nfs: mount(2): No such file or directory mount.nfs: trying text-based options 'addr=remote_ip_addr' mount.nfs: prog 100003, trying vers=3, prot=6 mount.nfs: trying REMOTE_IP prog 100003 vers 3 prot TCP port 2049 mount.nfs: prog 100005, trying vers=3, prot=17 mount.nfs: trying REMOTE_IP prog 100005 vers 3 prot UDP port 34449 mount.nfs: portmap query retrying: RPC: Timed out mount.nfs: prog 100005, trying vers=3, prot=6 mount.nfs: trying REMOTE_IP prog 100005 vers 3 prot TCP port 58566 showmount -e REMOTE_IP fails with rpc mount export: RPC: Timed out - server is running debian squeeze with nfs-kernel-server from wheezy - client is running debian wheezy any idea? regards -r
