Hello,
I have tried to use NFS and I made some tests on a single machine as follows:
a) I have added an entry to the /etc/exports file for my home directory b) I have created a new directory /mnt/nfs to test if I could mount my export c) I have tried the mount command as follows:
mount - t nfs localhost:/home/mydir /mnt/nfs
The command does not succed and I receive the following message:
mount: RPC: Unable to receive : errno=Connection refused
Can you please suggest what is the cause of the message and what I should do to correct the problem ?
Thank you and best regards

Hi, When I installed NFS, I also added the following line in /etc/hosts.allow : rpc.mountd : ip.address.of.the.client Fred

Hi, thank you for the answer. I added the line to etc/hosts.allow as you suggested, but I still got the same error. I have then tried to start manually: portmap rpc.mountd rpc.nfsd rpc.lockd and, after that, I got another message: mount: localost:/home/mydir failed, reason given by the server: Permission denied Any suggestions are welcome Thank you and best regards Mario Pesce At 03:09 PM 9/16/03 +0200, you wrote:
