Hi -
Long time Linux user, just upgraded from FC5 to FC6 and now can longer mount drives from my Solaris 8 (Sun Cluster 2.1) server. I can sucessfully mount filesystems from RedHat Enterprise Linux 4ES (Update 4) servers.
1) SELinux and IPtables are both disabled.
2) I can "ping" and "telnet" to the Solaris server, and "showmount -e" lists all the exported filesystems
3) tcpdump shows network traffic between the client and server
4) mount -t nfs server:/path /mnt commands time out with "Server not responding" messages
Any ideas?
Just for the record, FC6 works fine when mounting an export from a
Solaris 10 (sparc) box here. Just a stab in the dark, but maybe it's
related to NFS version conflicts? Have you done a sanity check to make
sure other machines can mount the solaris export? You could try editing
/etc/default/nfs on the solaris box, setting the min and max NFS
versions to 3 and on your linux box mounting with the option -o vers=3
That's assuming you don't explicitly need NFS V2 or V4.
