NFS mount mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting

knockout_artist · 11-26-2008, 01:18 PM

my /etc/exports

Code:

/mnt    *(ro)
/mnt/test *(rw)

I restarted nfs too.

when I try to mount I get

Code:

mount 10.143.10.201:/mnt/   /mnt
mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 10.143.10.201:/mnt

Thanks.

It might be a firewall issue. I think you need port 111 and some others that I can't recall opened.

/usr/sbin/rpcinfo -p

on your nfs server should give you the ports that the server is using.
It might also be good to edit hosts.allow and hosts.deny
