I had no problems on my FC7 test boxes connecting to an FC6 NFS box (used it for my installs actually as well), and it worked quite well. -- Mike Chambers Madisonville, KY "Best little town on Earth!"
Greetings Mike, Did you enable rpcbind on all your boxes or just the server? Is there anything else to do on the server or client side? Current status is that I have all my NFS services working (rpcinfo -p server) on both the server & client. My firewall (server & client) has ports 111, 2049, 4000, 4001, 4002 and 4003 configured and open for the various nfs services. I can exportfs my shares but cannot mount them on the client due to timimg out. I am currently trying to configure nfsvers=3. Any other suggestions? -- Virtually, Tom W
