If not, do so. Second, you've been advised to ditch telnet in favor of ssh. Good advice. Third, you haven't said whether you're doing NFS3 or NFS4. The latter is the one to use. Check out the steps in this page: http://www.crazysquirrel.com/computing/debian/servers/setting-up- nfs4.jspx. (Just be careful that the IP addresses match your setup) Finally, here's a script that tests your setup. If it does not reveal errors, you should be OK. systemctl restart nfs-lock.service systemctl restart nfs-idmap.service systemctl restart nfs-server.service tail -n 15 /var/log/messages FWIW, I had the same problem and was blessed with considerable help from the list. Hopefully this will work for you. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
