Hello Gang:

I have a Mandrake and a Suse. I would like to try NFS, but whenevr I try to mount one from the other it says RPC program not registered. I made sure NFS was started by using RCPINFO -p on bothe computers. I have exports file setup as per the book and the man pages. I am in init 3 on both computer and I have made sure NFS starts in runlevel 3.

What am I missing. If there is a thread that addresses this please give the number.

Thanks a bunch.

Hi harsh,

1. maybe you should have a look at these two
files:
/etc/hosts.allow
/etc/hosts.denie
There schould be something like
"ALL: local"
in hosts.allow.
2. If all is fine in these two files:
What does rpcinfo -p "hostname" say ?
There should be a mentioning of
rpc.mountd and
rpc.nfsd ?

HTH
Bernd

PS Sorry for my poor english.
