Are you sure portmapper and rpc.statd are running? That's the most common cause.
$ ps aux | grep port rpc 6788 0.0 0.1 1672 636 ? Ss 18:43 0:00 portmap
]$ ps aux | grep rpc rpcuser 4032 0.0 0.1 1716 756 ? Ss 17:30 0:00 rpc.statd rpc 6788 0.0 0.1 1672 636 ? Ss 18:43 0:00 portmap root 6899 0.0 0.1 3784 724 ? Ss 18:47 0:00 rpc.rquotad root 6912 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 18:47 0:00 [rpciod/0] root 6913 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 18:47 0:00 [rpciod/1] root 6917 0.0 0.1 1756 764 ? Ss 18:47 0:00 rpc.mountd
They're running.
Thanks for the suggestion. Any other thoughts?
If that's for the NFS server, I don't see rpc.nfsd running. Also verify that lockd is running ("ps aux | grep lock").
Also, are you sure the NFS server isn't blocked by iptables or by having portmap blocked by tcpwrappers (/etc/hosts.allow, /etc/hosts.deny)? Can you give us the /etc/exports file contents as well as the IP address of the NFS client? (suitably masked, of course).
Again, the NFS server should have portmap, rpc.mountd, rpc.nfsd, lockd, and rpc.statd running. The client should have portmap, lockd and
rpc.statd running.
