Hi,
Under FC4 I am trying to export a filesystem through NFS. The export
fails, however hard I try.
If I try to mount the (obviously unexported) FS from another machine, I
get the usual "reason given by server: Permission denied" message.
The question is how to debug this anomaly, namely that exportfs does
not do anything, and does not report any error.?
HEre is what I did:
-----------------
1 stop iptables
2 restart nfsd
3 Check NFS support in kernel:
zcat /proc/config.gz | grep NFS
CONFIG_NFS_FS=y
CONFIG_NFS_V3=y
# CONFIG_NFS_V3_ACL is not set
CONFIG_NFS_V4=y
CONFIG_NFS_DIRECTIO=y
CONFIG_NFSD=y
CONFIG_NFSD_V3=y
# CONFIG_NFSD_V3_ACL is not set
CONFIG_NFSD_V4=y
CONFIG_NFSD_TCP=y
CONFIG_NFS_COMMON=y
CONFIG_NCPFS_NFS_NS=y

volume is exported and that your client has the right kind
..."
Here is the entry from /etc/exports:
/mnt/md0 131.100.100.100(sync,no_subtree_check,rw)
Is that the *only* entry in /etc/exports?
If so, try restarting nfs again:
# service nfs restart
You can use "showmount" to check that the export is working:
# showmount -e localhost
