RPC: sendmsg return error 101 RPC: ... (the same message several times...)
Hi, I'm trying to use SuSE 6.1 as an X terminal, with an NFS root file system. Linux boot out of a floppy, requests its IP adress, get it from a dhcp server, and mounts its file system on the same server. It works, as you can see in the following log messages, on the server side: Jun 4 12:41:17 eth13-168 dhcpd: BOOTREQUEST from 00:50:04:37:71:bc via eth0 Jun 4 12:41:17 eth13-168 dhcpd: BOOTREPLY for 150.1.27.15 to eth27-015 (00:50:04:37:71:bc) via eth0 Jun 4 12:41:24 eth13-168 mountd[103]: NFS mount of /xterminals/root attempted from 150.1.27.15 Jun 4 12:41:24 eth13-168 mountd[103]: /xterminals/root has been mounted by 150.1.27.15 After that, the client as still a lot of things to do, as creating its own directory on the server (only the first time), where it will save its configuration files. But I get the following messages on the client's console: plus, sometimes, this one:
portmap: server localhost not responding, timed out. (I expect that this message means that a local service is falling)
According to /usr/include/asm/errno.h, the error number 101 means "Network unreachable..." The root file system, built from a SuSE 6.0 , is working very well with a kernel 2.0.36, but I don't have the .config file corresponding to it. Here is my own .config file, perhaps somebody could find if something is wrong.
