After installing 9.2 on both a server and a client, I started nfs on the server without problems, but attempting to start it on the client turned up a "permission denied" message.
The last time I used nfs, if memory serves, was on 9.0, and the same /etc/exports file and entries into /etc/fstab on the client were successful. /etc/exports was a simple:
* /home (rw,no_root_squash) * /var (rw,no_root_squash)
/etc/fstab on the client side:
suseutil:/var /var/suseutil.var nfs defaults 0 0 suseutil:/home /home/suseutil.home nfs defaults 0 0
As I said, these entries have worked with past SuSE versions. My conclusion is that SuSE has tightened something. Does anyone know what it is or where I should start looking?
In the export file try specifying the network/netmask that can access the share instead of the '*'. One of my entries: /shared 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0(insecure,no_root_squash,rw) I'm not sure the 'insecure' is needed. I was in a hurry and just trying to get it work at the time. Since it's a local network behind a firewall, I just haven't tried it without the 'insecure' yet. Hope that helps Doug
