Hello,
I'm booting an UltraSparc machine with tftp over NFS. The boot server is
i386 running 5.4-PRERELEASE, the UltraSparc nfs root is 5.3-RELEASE.
On the server, I'm running:
mountd (-r)
nfsd (-u -t -n 4)
rpcbind
rpc.statd
rpc.lockd
The Ultra will boot fine, however, whenever I attempt to create an account,
set a passwd, etc (anything that requires a file lock), I get an error telling
me "Operation not supported". Thus, I have only a root account with a
null password 8>0
rpcinfo(8) shows:
program version(s) netid(s) service owner
100000 2,3,4 local,udp,tcp rpcbind superuser
100005 3,1 tcp,udp mountd superuser
100003 3,2 tcp,udp nfs superuser
100024 1 tcp,udp status superuser
100021 4,3,1,0 tcp,udp nlockmgr superuser
and the Ultra kernel is built with:
options BOOTP # User bootp to obtain IP address/hostname
options BOOTP_NFSROOT # NFS mount root filesystem w/ bootp info
options BOOTP_NFSV3 # NFSv3 for mount root
options BOOTP_COMPAT # Workaround for broken bootp daemons
options BOOTP_WIRED_TO=hme0 # Use interface hme0 for BOOTP
I didn't find anything recent on the web to suggest that this shouldn't work;
I may have missed something in configuring the setup. Any advice is welcome.
