Sorry I've been trying to get nfs (server) working
I've installed 4 times out of frustration. And I'm
still frustrated. I see on google that other people
seem to have this problem also but none of there fixes
work for me.
my exports file is from a working RedHat 7.1 system.
(The system I'm trying to replace Debian).
rpcinfo -p
program vers proto port
100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper
100000 2 udp 111 portmapper
100024 1 udp 1035 status
100024 1 tcp 1039 status
100005 1 udp 1046 mountd
100005 1 tcp 1105 mountd
100005 2 udp 1046 mountd
100005 2 tcp 1105 mountd
from the machine I want to mount the directories on.
showmount -e tango.themanchesters.com
Export list for tango.themanchesters.com:
/etc 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
/usr 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
/var 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
/data 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
/data/kickstart 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
/ 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
/home 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
mchester@cpt:~$ su -c"mount -tnfs
tango.themanchesters.com:/ /mnt/tango.backup/root"
Password:
mount: tango.themanchesters.com:/ failed, reason given
by server: Permission denied
mchester@cpt:~$
The above is the error I'm getting.
I only want to do this so I can make a backup to
cd-rom. But at this rate I'm thinking of install a cd
rom burner on the server :)
