configure iptable for NFS
Hello
Can someone help me configure the firewall on fedora core 4 to allow NFS? I have one Master/head-node with two network cards. One connecting it to the internet and one to a private subnet of Slave-nodes. I want to mount one Master dir on all the Slaves and one Slave dir (from only one of the slaves) on the Master. NFS works great if I take the firewall down on the Master (/etc/init.d/iptables stop) but with it running I get the following errors... Trying to mount Slave dir on Master Code:
[root@master ~]# /etc/init.d/iptables start Code:
mount: slave2:/usr/blastdb: can't read superblock Trying to mount Master dir on a Slave Code:
[root@slave2 ~]# mount -Fv master:/home /users I know NFS uses random ports and therefore I need portmap running, which it is, but the FC4 firewall must need something adjusted to work with it. Any ideas? The only route to the slaves is through the master, thus I don't need a firewall on the network card to the slaves. Can't I just have the firewall enables on one card? Thanks Code:
[root@master ~]# more /etc/hosts.allow |
Does anyone have a FC4 firewall configured to work with NFS?
Is it possible to restrict the firewall to one network card? Does anyone know a work round? I've got a cluster sitting doing nothing, some impatient users and no idea how to proceed. :scratch: Thanks in advance to anyone who can help. |

for example, let's say you have several cards (eth0, eth1, eth2, etc.): Code:
iptables -P INPUT DROP |
