nfs internal error


I have Fedora 9 and of recently my nfs mounting is failing

Code:
[root@walden5 /]# mount.nfs walden4.local:/opt2 /opt2 -v
mount.nfs: timeout set for Thu Jan 29 10:46:06 2009
mount.nfs: text-based options: 'addr=192.168.1.140'
mount.nfs: internal error
This was working and I suspect some update has broken it. I just do not know where to start given the lack of detail in the "internal error" message. I have searched around and I can say
  • I do not have iptables or ip6table running. No firewall
  • rpcbind is running on the nfs client and server
  • Adding a -o udp to the mount still fails
  • I can mount.nfs the directory locally to the server machine (walden4), the remote clients (walden3, walden5) fail.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Any ideas how to troubleshoot beyaond the "internal error" also appreciated. Here is the server rpcinfo below:

Code:
[root@walden4 /]# rpcinfo

This seems oddly similar to another thread with FC9 and NFS problems:

http://fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=189949

You mentioned that iptables is not running -- but is this for the NFS client or server?

Yes, I looked at that thread before posting here. I also posted in the fedora forum but I have not received any real help.

iptables is off for all clients and the server. I double checked.

SOLVED: nfs internal error

After much flailing around and help from others, this problem was cause by the recent nfs-utils update as documented in redhat bug 480223. A discussion thread indicated that a roll back of nfs-utils would help.

It did

P.S. I wish nfs was more helpful with its error messages.
