Subject: NFS on FC5
On a new FC 5 system, I am trying to serve up five large partitions
(all over 80 Gb apiece) across the network. In particular to an FC2
system.
The new system can mount partitions from other systems on the network.
I have disabled selinux. I have the correct hosts in /etc/host.allow
with permissions to all.
On the client I keep getting that there is no route to the host.
Although from the client I can see the services on the server.
[root@client root]# rpcinfo -p server

[root@client root]# mount -v /dist
mount to NFS server 'server' failed.
RPC Error: 12 ( Remote system error )
System Error: 113 (No route to host)
The line from /etc/fstab on the client is
server:/numbers1 /dist nfs4 proto=tcp,soft,bg,rw
I have tried this line with "nfs" instead of "nfs4" and without the
"proto=tcp" option.
What is going wrong?
I believe it is a security issue. I turned off iptables, and the
partitions mounted across the network. Now to find the relevant ports
to open up.
