I have two linux computers that I need to share files with. I have checked to make sure that nfs is running on both machines. The nfs server's export files reads as:
/MyDocuments 192.168.15.0/255.255.255.0(rw)
/evolution 192.168.15.0/255.255.255.0(rw)
the fstab file on my client machine is:
192.168.15.1:/MyDocuments /TheWeb nfs rw 0 0
I rebootede both and am unable to write to the /TheWeb folder because it says "permission denied"
I do not have a firewall running <yet> and my hosts.allow file says:
portmap:192.168.15.0/255.255.255.0
lockd:192.168.15.0/255.255.255.0
mountd:192.168.15.0/255.255.255.0
rquotad:192.168.15.0/255.255.255.0
statd:192.168.15.0/255.255.255.0
I have the same user name and password on both computers. I also have smb working perfectly on the same computer I need the nfs server to work on.
n/m, I'm used to having root user do anything. I was trying to copy as root, and nfs was told to shrink remote root to nobody. It's a good lesson for anyone in the future!!! sorry about that
