NOTE: This is a repost of a message posted on gentoo.user list I've apparently forgotten whatever little I may have known about setting up nfs from having used it long ago. I found a brief help page on google that I used to get this far along at: http://linux-bsd-sharing.blogspot.com/2008/09/howto-setup-nfs-server-on-gentoo.html Its very brief and has no debugging info. Also I see nothing about debugging in /etc/conf.d/nfs either. After setting all nfs related kernel items and booting the kernel. (The setting are inlined toward the end of this message) Checking that mods appears to be installed and running. Making sure portmapper is running. Then when I try to start nfsd service it fails, producing these messages in sysklogd: Jan [...] nfsd[29077]: nfssvc: Protocol not supported Jan [...' : RPC: failed to contact local rpcbind server (errno 5). Only one of the nfssvc lines appear but the RPC line appears several times. I got the impression from google that nfssvc was related to nfs4 so may not mean too much ... but then I'm really not sure what it might mean. I don't really know what info would be helpfull but have included output from emerge, rpcinfo, lsmod and related kernel settings: Installed nfs related pkgs [...] Sat Jan 10 18:30:11 2009 >>> net-libs/libnfsidmap-0.21-r1 Sat Jan 10 18:30:30 2009 >>> net-nds/portmap-6.0 Sat Jan 10 18:31:20 2009 >>> dev-libs/libevent-1.4.9 Sat Jan 10 18:32:39 2009 >>> net-fs/nfs-utils-1.1.4 ===== * ===== * ===== * ===== kernel: # grep 'NFS\|RPC' .config # CONFIG_AF_RXRPC is not set CONFIG_NFS_FS=m CONFIG_NFS_V3=y CONFIG_NFS_V3_ACL=y CONFIG_NFS_V4=y CONFIG_NFSD=m CONFIG_NFSD_V2_ACL=y CONFIG_NFSD_V3=y CONFIG_NFSD_V3_ACL=y CONFIG_NFSD_V4=y CONFIG_NFS_ACL_SUPPORT=m CONFIG_NFS_COMMON=y CONFIG_SUNRPC=m CONFIG_SUNRPC_GSS=m CONFIG_SUNRPC_REGISTER_V4=y CONFIG_RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5=m # CONFIG_RPCSEC_GSS_SPKM3 is not set ===== * ===== * ===== * ===== # rpcinfo -p localhost program vers proto port 100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper 100000 2 udp 111 portmapper 100024 1 udp 34971 status 100024 1 tcp 43460 status 100005 1 udp 34365 mountd 100005 1 tcp 44349 mountd 100005 2 udp 34365 mountd 100005 2 tcp 44349 mountd 100005 3 udp 34365 mountd 100005 3 tcp 44349 mountd ===== * ===== * ===== * ===== lsmod Module Size Used by nfs 206772 0 nfsd 185008 9 lockd 55160 2 nfs,nfsd nfs_acl 2688 2 nfs,nfsd auth_rpcgss 28548 1 nfsd sunrpc 144584 9 nfs,nfsd,lockd,nfs_acl,auth_rpcgss exportfs 3456 1 nfsd fuse 42268 0 usbhid 13588 0 usbmouse 3712 0 usbkbd 4992 0 floppy 45348 0 pcspkr 2176 0 i2c_i801 7952 0 r8169 26500 0 i2c_core 17680 1 i2c_i801 mii 4224 1 r8169 snd_intel8x0 25500 0 snd_ac97_codec 88352 1 snd_intel8x0 ehci_hcd 28684 0 uhci_hcd 18444 0 ac97_bus 1536 1 snd_ac97_codec snd_pcm 48008 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec snd_timer 15364 1 snd_pcm snd 34788 4 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm,snd_timer usbcore 104760 6 usbhid,usbmouse,usbkbd,ehci_hcd,uhci_hcd snd_page_alloc 7304 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm intel_agp 22588 1 agpgart 25520 1 intel_agp button 5904 0 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
