Hey guys,
Long time no post. Before I start, I hope this is in the right forum and shouldn't have belonged in the Networking forum... I'm having a problem with some servers that's really tripping my brain.
From a Fedora 9 server (I think!) I'm trying to mount an nfs drive from a Mac Server. You see, a couple weeks back this was working fine but now there seems to be a problem.
I've tried using the mount command and found the following line in the /etc/fstab doc...
Code:
<IP ADDRESS>:/remote/nfs/directory /directory/to/mount/on nfs defaults 0 0
It was commented so I uncommented it, hoping this would be a quick and easy resolution =). Anyway, it didn't work and when I run
mount -av the server timesout... So on the Mac Server, I enabled Samba sharing preferences and tried adding this to fstab,
Code:
<IP ADDRESS>:/remote/nfs/directory /directory/to/mount/on cifs username=name,password=password 0 0
When I run
mount -a it hangs... I guess I'm doing everything totally wrong... I can SSH into the MAC Server and use tar, rsync etc with no problem. But I really need this drive to mount as it once use to. It's been suggested to me that the NFS or networking module on the Linux box might be broken... If it is then I am clueless on what to do.
Many thanks as always.
