This how I export my data-drive out to other machines which are behind a firewall.
You have nfs installed of course. I have nfs-kernel-server and nfs-common (among others).
Check it's running:
In /etc/exports file:
Include full path to export, asterix means share to anywhere, then some options. (Make work first then add custom options later)
example:
Code:
/home/maxie/T-REX/Major/ *(rw,async)
Make changes to exports stick:
Now over at the client machine:
Check which mounts are active.
(Change to your servers IP address.)
Code:
showmount -e 172.19.0.1
Mount as usual..
You're previous command:
Code:
[root@Poly_1C ~]# mount 172.19.0.1:/Files /mnt/Share/
You should not be logged in as root! anyway, you were testing... right?
Code:
sudo mount 172.19.0.1:/share/is/full/path /mnt/Share/
Put your mount into fstab and your good to go.
Now someone can point out my errors and fill in the blanks.
