second hard disk will not mount on client
Hi!
I have a second hard drive installed on server. It has been mounted on server but I cannot mount it on client. I've tried to export it from server by putting: /opt2 name.domain(rw,no_root_squash) in server's /etc/exports. In server's /etc/fstab, I have the entry: /dev/hdb1 /opt2 ext3 defaults 1 2 In client's /etc/fstab, I put: name.domain:/opt2 /opt2mnt nfs defaults 0 0 When trying to mount I get: mount: name.domain:/opt2 failed, reason given by server: Permission denied I've also try to mount it on client manually by: mount -t nfs name.domain:/opt2 /opt2mnt I am also mounting server's home directory on client, without problems, so I'd say NFS works fine. Does anybody have an idea what might cause the problem? Thanks. |
Did you run "exportfs -a" after editing /etc/exports on the server?
Have you run "exportfs" to verify it shows as exported? |
Hi jlightner,
Thank you for your reply. I did do exportfs -a and I did verify exports with exportfs. It shows my entry: /opt2 name.domain I've also restarted nfs. I've rebooted server and client too, but to no avail. Could it be that I have to change some permissions? Here are permissions for opt2 folder on server: drwxr-xr-x root root The opt2 folder contains hdb1. Permissions of hdb1 are: drwxrwxrwx root root I don't see anything wrong with these permissions but I am far away from being a linux expert. |
