[SunHELP] NFS Mounts

[Les]

To help you I would like to see at least the lines in vfstab on the mounting
client and dfstab on the advertising server showing the entries concerned.
Per the message below, would also help to see the hosts entries on both
machines.
Am, of course, assuming that after changes were made to server side you
restarted NFS?
Did you run showmount -e (on server) to see that the client is listed?
Can you run  " rpcinfo client_name  "  from the server and vice-versa? This
is
not a requirement, but usually indicates a problem unless your network
setup thru firewalls, etc. is REALLY good.

check if the mountd daemon is running on both servers,
check the /etc/hosts file if remote host's hostname is there (sometimes
mountd wants you to give mount command by using hostnames, not IP adresses),
so if you didn't, add  remote hosts' name in /etc/hosts at both machines and
try to mount by giving their hostnames not ip adresses
and chech if you have exported truly the destination directory at the remote
host (in the remote host's  the /etc/dfs/dfstab file, you must have a line
like " share /path_of_share_directory" )

Fellow Admins,
Has anyone run across a problem doing Remote NFS mounts.
I am getting access denied when tring to do a remote mount.
Entries have been made on the server's dfstab file and in the vfstab
file
on the client. Both boxes are Solaris.
Any ideas?

Thanks,
Juan (Johnny) Garza
