On both computers, the script that starts/stops these daemons locked up and refused to start nfs. I assumed that you meant exactly the opposite, so I started rpcbind, then nfs, and stopped nfs, then rpcbind,, in that order, and things went much better, but still no success. What happened on the exporting computer: all the daemons started and a bunch of others were started like you said that they get taken care of, but I got this foreboding message: Starting RPC idmapd: Error: RPC MTAB does not exist. On the laptop, using the reverse order of what you had said (the other gave lots of fatal messages): mount.nfs4: access denied by server while mounting 192.164.x.x:/ What gives? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
