I have been trying to get NFS working seemlessly with KDE. Here is the thing:
I have a 2 computer home net. I am running Debian (unstable) on one, and Slackware (Current) on another.
I can mount both directions: that is I can manually mount with a command like:
Code:
mount -t nfs xxxxx.xxxxx.net:/home /mnt/remoteHome
Then I can CD to that directory (/mnt/remoteHome) and browse just fine.
Like I said this works on either computer just fine and this is why i am posting here and not in Linux Networking!
Anyway, the problem obviously lies within KDE then. (Since I can do it within a shell).
I get this message on either computer:
" Authorization failed, host1.madeup.net authentication not supported "
In /var/log/messages I get this:
Code:
Jan 6 13:32:34 shea101 rpc.mountd: authenticated mount request from host1.madeup.net:747 for /home (/)
Jan 6 13:33:35 shea101 rpc.mountd: export request from 192.168.1.100
Jan 6 13:33:35 shea101 rpc.mountd: refused mount request from host1.madeup.net for / (/): illegal port 34835
(The first entry is a successful (manual shell) mount.) The next is the entry I get the error in KDE on.)
Ok well that is about it. See my signature for any more info on my system(s).
(BTW I have searched high and low (google and others) for anything relating to this, and have found questions pertaining to it, but never any answers which makes me worry that no one will know an answer.. PLEASE prove me wrong!!!

*EDIT*
I forgot to mention that in the syslog the port # above will change everytime I get a 'failed' attempt. It is not always the same port in other words...
Such as:
Code:
Jan 6 13:33:35 shea101 rpc.mountd: export request from 192.168.1.100
Jan 6 13:33:35 shea101 rpc.mountd: refused mount request from host1.madeup.net for / (/): illegal port 34835
Jan 6 13:33:44 shea101 rpc.mountd: export request from 192.168.1.100
Jan 6 13:33:44 shea101 rpc.mountd: refused mount request from host1.madeup.net for / (/): illegal port 34838
Jan 6 13:42:22 shea101 rpc.mountd: export request from 192.168.1.100
Jan 6 13:42:22 shea101 rpc.mountd: refused mount request from host1.madeup.net for / (/): illegal port 34855
Don't know if this matters, but thought I would point it out....
Thanks!
