I have an Apple OS X 10.4.3 that was successfully connected to Suse Linux 9.2 NFS server. I upgraded to Suse 10.0 and now the Apple cannot find the Linux server. It can successfully ping the Linux IP address. What settings do I need when starting the Linux NFS services? There must be some differences between 9.2 and 10.0 that I'm missing.
One thing that helped (in 9.x as well) was to put the "insecure" option on the share in /etc/exports. Apple explain how not having "insecure" doesn't actually make you any more secure, and I rather agree with them. If you get complaints about "Service not registered" then you need to start portmap. If putting a tail on /var/log/messages doesn't reveal any activity, then it's probably firewall settings. my $.02 michaelj -- Michael James michael.james@csiro.au System Administrator voice: 02 6246 5040 CSIRO Bioinformatics Facility fax: 02 6246 5166 No matter how much you pay for software, you always get less than you hoped. Unless you pay nothing, then you get more.
