No doubt, this is the client. I desperatly started all nfs daemons, in hopes of getting rid of of this RPC obstacle. I never turned on the firewall or messed with the /etc/allow,deny, never had to.

You have nfsd running here, does that mean the client is also a server? Can other machines mount from it? Or did you perhaps run the ps -ef on the server? If so, what does it look like on the client? Also, do you have a firewall running on the client? And what is the contents of /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny ? -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com

iptables and netfilter are the linux firewall user space and kernel module respectively. If they aren't enabled then it's not an issue in your case. If netfilter is running then you need to check your rules to be sure it's not blocking the ports you need. Take a look in /var/log/messages after a failed mount attempt to see if there are any useful messages there. Jeff

There is no daemon, but you can check your rules with iptables -L If you get a ton of stuff there, then your firewall is running. If so, you need to either turn it off ("rcSuSEfirewall2 stop" if it's a recent-ish suse version) or make sure port 111 is allowed through it Also check on the server, both firewall rules and /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny to make sure the rules don't block this new client. (Could easily happen, if the RH client is on a different subnet and that subnet is explicitly allowed and nothing else, or if the rules explicitly let through the RH client and nothing else)
