hi,
i don't have the whole mail thread with me, but i'll try to give you a
simple solution for you.. :-)
In NFS server, put the following line (replace "your_directory" with your
actual directory)
# vim /etc/exports
/your_directory *(rw,sync)
then export the shares, restart the portmap and nfs server.
for the time being issue the permission as world read and writeable (chmod
-R 777) to that directory.
inside that directory you create two more directories.
# mkdir /your_directory/sub1 (like wise)
Install the nfs-common libraries (pdgs) in the client machines.
change the following files (in clients).
# /etc/hosts.allow
portmap : your_server_ip
# /etc/hosts.deny
portmat : ALL
this should be the IP address, not the hostname.
log out and log in (if you really need)...
try to mount the share manually.
# mount your_nfs_server_ip:/your_directory_sub1 /your_client_mont_point
if you can view the mounted share by cd /your_client_mount_point you've done
fine.
if you want to auto mount the particular share every time the computer
boots, put that mount point in /etc/fstab.
# vim /etc/fstab
server_ip:/your_directory_sub1 /your_client_mount_point nfs rw,hard,intr
0 0
do the same with the other client.
i'm sending this mail on the run.. update the list if you encounter any
hicups.. ;-)
good luck!
