Boy, I hope someone has an idea about this, the server we use at school with all the studeent accounts on it is not able to export their home directories...

Today I noticed that when I boot up my client (the server is running RH 9.0, the client is running RHEL 4.0) I noticed that none of the exported NFS directories were available. I checked the following services:

nfs
rpc.mountd
rpc.nfsd
rpc.rquotad

and they were all dead. I was able to start all of the rpc daemons by entering them from the command line, but when I try to start or restart nfs OR when I try to use exportfs -r the response is to display all of the exports and then hang.

Any ideas what's going on????


thanks!
steve
