Hi...I'm using gentoo.Can anyone tell me how to start all the necessary nfs daemons, excluding portmap coz i have that started.I installed the nfs-utils package on the client and the server(which is supposed to have all the nfs daemons included).But when i do(on the server):
i get:
It's the same with nfslogd, lockd and rquotad etc. I have nfsd compiled directly into my kernel.
I don't understand.All the nfs daemons were supposed to be in nfs-utils.Any help would be great and if your telling me that i need to install the nfs daemons then please tell me how(prefferably for gentoo).Thankx in advance

Please ignore that last post.I have all the daemons started now thankx

The whole idea of public forums is to help as many people as possible, so providing the solution is essential.

In Gentoo (and in many other distros) the command to start NFS is /etc/init.d/nfs start.
To ensure it is started at boot: rc-update add nfs default

Yes that's what i did.I didn't post the answer coz i didn't think people wouldn't know it.I'm only a n00b etc....
