Dan, When you setup the NFS server & client, did you check the entry for "Open port for firewall"?? I think that is suppose to take care of any firewall problems when running, doesn't it? This is all handled within YaST2 setup of both. I ask, because the one I most recently setup give me the same problems, until I checked that selection.
Hi Lee. I appreciate your feed back. Could you please be more specific. I didn't tick"Open port for firewall" - where do I find that in YAST? Regards, Dan ==============
Ok, start up YaST2 from the shell, like this: kdesu yast2 That will put you in the root mode automatically without having to enter your root password for each module you want to use. Once it opens, go to Network Services> NFS Client or Server. Start the one you want to setup. Your next window should have the Open port for firewall. Also, you can add the directories you want to work with from your server side. This is Client of course. You need to specify the directories on your server first though. You will also find the open port for firewall there too.
