Greetings, It's me again with another tyro problem.
I'm trying to set up my big Ryzen M9 workstation as compute host for my desktop PC, which is an i5 NUCI. I had the same arrangement working well with the i5's predecessor, but I can't make it work this time. The idea is to NFS-export the i5's portage and packages directories to the M9, which mounts it in a chroot partition to work on it. The M9 is on the wored LAN, the i5 uses WiFi to connect through the ADSL modem-router. The M9 has a separate partition for the chroot, but the i5 portage tree and packages directory both live under the /var partition. I've used the same script and file-system layout on the M9 as before, merely adjusting the IP address. # mount /mnt/nuci # mount -t nfs 192.168.178.40:/mnt/nfs/portage /mnt/nuci/var/db/repos/gentoo mount.nfs: mounting 192.168.178.40:/mnt/nfs/portage failed, reason given by server: No such file or directory That reply comes about 15s after the mount command, so DNS is working and traffic is flowing between the machines. This is /etc/exports on the i5: /mnt/nfs \ 192.168.178.7(rw,sync,no_subtree_check,anonuid=250,anongid=250,crossmnt,fsid=0) /mnt/nfs/portage \ 192.168.178.7(rw,sync,insecure,nohide,no_subtree_check,all_squash,anonuid=250,anongid=250) /mnt/nfs/portage.packages \ 192.168.178.7(rw,sync,insecure,nohide,no_subtree_check,all_squash,anonuid=250,anongid=250) $ ls -la /mnt/nfs/portage | head total 1.1M drwxr-xr-x 179 root portage 4.0K Sep 20 10:27 . drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4.0K Oct 8 14:21 .. drwxr-xr-x 451 portage portage 12K Sep 5 15:51 acct-group drwxr-xr-x 421 portage portage 12K Sep 5 15:51 acct-user drwxr-xr-x 27 portage portage 4.0K Sep 3 14:36 app-accessibility drwxr-xr-x 194 portage portage 4.0K Oct 1 12:13 app-admin drwxr-xr-x 12 portage portage 4.0K Sep 3 14:36 app-alternatives drwxr-xr-x 6 portage portage 4.0K Sep 3 14:36 app-antivirus drwxr-xr-x 111 portage portage 4.0K Sep 3 14:36 app-arch Everything under /mnt/nfs/portage has owner portage:portage. (I found that necessary on the earlier setup, so it's the same here.) I've checked the firewall settings and logs; no problems found. Both kernels have NFSv3 and v4, but not 4.1 or 4.2. What else can I check? -- Regards, Peter.
