[SOLVED] NFS under Debian

AnalBeard · 09-03-2012, 02:16 AM

Ok, so i've been trying to set up NFS on my kFreeBSD box with mixed results. So far, my settings are as follows:

Code:

simon@sepulveda:~$ cat /etc/rc.conf 
nfs_server_enable="YES"
nfs_server_flags="-u -t -o -n 4"
nfs_reserved_port_only="YES"
rcpbind_enable="YES"
mountd_flags="-r"
mountd_enable="YES"
rpc_lockd_enable="YES"
rpc_statd_enable="YES"

Code:

simon@sepulveda:~$ cat /etc/exports 
/home/simon -ro -maproot=root -network 192.168.1.0 -mask 255.255.255.0
/mnt -maproot=root -network 192.168.1.0 -mask 255.255.255.0
/home/simon/t -ro -maproot=root -network 192.168.1.0 -mask 255.255.255.0

however, when i use my Mac to query what's available on the server, i get this:

Code:

Figueroa:AnalBeard ~ : showmount -e sepulveda
Exports list on sepulveda:
/home/simon                         192.168.1.0

now the /mnt directory i've exported originally exported my ZFS share, but i wondered whether ACLs were the issue so i just shared /mnt, and the last share was just a test. Neither of them work though. Any ideas?

Did you restart the services on sepulveda after changing /etc/exports?
What does showmount for sepulveda say when run it sepulveda itself? Also I doubt that theres a difference might be worth a try.

Restarted, and when that didn't work, I rebooted, just make sure. I can't use showmount on Sepulveda because it's not in the repos.

This gets stranger and stranger.

Did some fiddling and modified the line of the one export that works, and now i get this:

Code:

Figueroa:AnalBeard ~ : showmount -e sepulveda
Exports list on sepulveda:
/tank                               192.168.1.0
/mnt/sepulveda.tank                 192.168.1.0

Code:

simon@sepulveda:/sbin$ cat /etc/exports 
/mnt/sepulveda.tank -ro -maproot=root -network 192.168.1.0 -mask 255.255.255.0
/tank -alldirs -network 192.168.1.0 -mask 255.255.255.0

how very odd!

however, it all works now and i can mount my shares without the appallingness that is Samba.

Glad you got it working. NFS sometimes can be an ass cause it's not just one service one has to take care of. portmap, nfs_kernel_server, mountd. Also the configuration is really strict a space within the allowed networks options can make a huge difference.
