Hi Beni, It seems like that you don't have portmap running. How did you configure the nfs server?
Personally I don't have experience with FC1, but i guess it's very similar to redhat or mdk with handling the configuration. Generally what i would do to configure an NFS server is: 1. edit /etc/exports, and add aline similar to this: /path/to/share *(ro,sync) (* stands for all hosts. you can replace it if it ain't secure enough for you) 2. /etc/init.d/nfs start the 2nd step will run all other necessary services which aren't running yet. (like portmap for example) 3. i think it doesn't affect nfs (but don't remember for sure), but if you still have problems, make sure you don't have /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny Noam ---- Original message ---- >Date: Fri, 23 Jul 2004 18:04:53 +0300 >From: Beni Cherniavsky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: mount: RPC: Program not registered >To: Linux IL Mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >I'm trying to install Fedora Core 2 (now I have FC1) over NFS between 2 >computers at home.
