Just for the record, FC6 works fine when mounting an export from a Solaris 10 (sparc) box here. Just a stab in the dark, but maybe it's related to NFS version conflicts? Have you done a sanity check to make sure other machines can mount the solaris export? You could try editing /etc/default/nfs on the solaris box, setting the min and max NFS versions to 3 and on your linux box mounting with the option -o vers=3 That's assuming you don't explicitly need NFS V2 or V4. -------------------------------- Yes, the Solaris cluster is working properly. It's the backbone of my infrastructure so I'd have much bigger problems if it failed! :) The workstation could mount from the cluster when running FC5, but after installing FC6 fails (with and without vers=3 option); however, I ran another test this morning, and FC6 will mount from a non-clustered Solaris 8 machine. Here is the output from the showmount and mount commands. # uname -a Linux ac523421 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 #1 SMP Mon Oct 16 14:37:32 EDT 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux # showmount -e superfly Export list for superfly: /superfly/vol01 (everyone) /superfly/vol02 (everyone) /superfly/vol03 (everyone) /superfly/vol04 (everyone) /superfly/vol05 (everyone) /superfly/vol06 (everyone) /superfly/vol07 (everyone) /superfly/vol08 (everyone) # mount superfly:/superfly/vol01 /mnt mount: mount to NFS server 'superfly' failed: timed out (retrying). mount: mount to NFS server 'superfly' failed: timed out (retrying). mount: mount to NFS server 'superfly' failed: timed out (retrying). mount: mount to NFS server 'superfly' failed: timed out (retrying). mount: mount to NFS server 'superfly' failed: timed out (giving up). # mount -o vers=3 superfly:/superfly/vol01 /mnt mount: mount to NFS server 'superfly' failed: timed out (retrying). mount: mount to NFS server 'superfly' failed: timed out (retrying). mount: mount to NFS server 'superfly' failed: timed out (retrying). mount: mount to NFS server 'superfly' failed: timed out (retrying). mount: mount to NFS server 'superfly' failed: timed out (giving up). I can generate a packet capture if that would be of interest. Thanks
