Well, I have run into some problems in getting this NFS to work... I was able to get it working in the lab but when I moved it to the real box I was unable to get the shared drives to mount. Here is what I have: SERVER setup this is a log message I am getting Aug 10 11:27:22 app rpc.mountd: refused mount request from app.troyresearch.com for /usr (/): no export entry
as you can see below I have the export entrys in this file!!! /etc/exports file - I have eliminated extra options for troubleshooting purposes.) #This file contains a list of entries; each entry indicates a volume that is #shared and how it is shared. # # an entry will be in the form of : # directory machine1 (option11,option12) machine2 (option21, option22) # # /var 66.179.42.82(rw) /home 66.179.42.82(rw) /usr 66.179.42.82(rw) /etc/hosts.allow # # hosts.allow This file describes the names of the hosts which are # allowed to use the local INET services, as decided # by the '/usr/sbin/tcpd' server. # portmap: 66.179.42.82 lockd: 66.179.42.82 rquotad: 66.179.42.82 statd: 66.179.42.82 mountd: 66.179.42.82 nfsd: 66.179.42.82 etc/hosts.deny ( note: whole file comented out for troubleshooting) # # hosts.deny This file describes the names of the hosts which are # *not* allowed to use the local INET services, as decided # by the '/usr/sbin/tcpd' server. # # The portmap line is redundant, but it is left to remind you that # the new secure portmap uses hosts.deny and hosts.allow.
