LinuxQuestions.org - problem mounting NFS

I've set up a new server running with Debian Sarge (I know, it's experimental, but I needed Samba 3 and some other newer packages) and tried to configure an user-space NFS server. All components are already installed.

So here are my server's /etc/exports:

Code:

/daten/user *(rw,no_root_squash,insecure)

The server's IP is 192.168.0.12, the client's one (at least the IP of my administrative test client) is 192.168.0.3.

If i try to mount it with

Code:

mount -t nfs 192.168.0.12:/daten/user /mnt/test

the following message occurs:

Code:

mount: 192.168.0.12:/daten/user failed, reason given by server: Permission denied.

On the server, /var/log/syslog shows an equivalent message (that the access attempt was unauthorized and therefore blocked).

If I change the server's /etc/exports to:

Code:

/daten/user 192.168.0.*(rw,no_root_squash,insecure)

Code:

/daten/user 192.168.0.0/24(rw,no_root_squash,insecure)

it doesn't work anyway.

But, if I change /etc/exports to

Code:

/daten/user 192.168.0.3(rw,no_root_squash,insecure)

mounting the export from the PC mentioned above (192.168.0.3) works fine.

But that's not a solution since there are several PCs requiring the ability to mount that NFS export.

Does anyone of you have an idea?

Thanks,
Holger
