No, it's not a problem. It just a lack of NFSv3's file lock, if you try to lock NFSv3 file, you must start the nfslock service both the client and server (maybe other platform don't named nfslock). Because your normal NFS operation don't need file lock, so NFSv3 is still working fine. > > $ rpcinfo -t linux_server nlockmgr > rpcinfo: RPC: Timed out > program 100021 version 0 is not available > > $ rpcinfo -u linux_server nlockmgr > rpcinfo: RPC: Timed out > program 100021 version 0 is not available > > $ rpcinfo -p The linux_server and localhost are different machine ? linux_server is CentOS?? or MAC? localhost is? -- thanks, Mi Jinlong > program vers proto port > 100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper > 100000 2 udp 111 portmapper > 100024 1 udp 895 status > 100024 1 tcp 898 status > 100011 1 udp 806 rquotad > 100011 2 udp 806 rquotad > 100011 1 tcp 809 rquotad > 100011 2 tcp 809 rquotad > 100003 2 udp 2049 nfs > 100003 3 udp 2049 nfs > 100003 4 udp 2049 nfs > 100021 1 udp 32794 nlockmgr > 100021 3 udp 32794 nlockmgr > 100021 4 udp 32794 nlockmgr > 100003 2 tcp 2049 nfs > 100003 3 tcp 2049 nfs > 100003 4 tcp 2049 nfs > 100021 1 tcp 57164 nlockmgr > 100021 3 tcp 57164 nlockmgr > 100021 4 tcp 57164 nlockmgr > 100005 1 udp 828 mountd > 100005 1 tcp 831 mountd > 100005 2 udp 828 mountd > 100005 2 tcp 831 mountd > 100005 3 udp 828 mountd > 100005 3 tcp 831 mountd > > On Fri, Jan 14, 2011 at 1:37 PM, Mi Jinlong <mijinlong@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> >> hce : >>> Hi, >>> >>> I am running nfs server on a CentOS 5, it works fine for all >>> connections from linux, windows clients.
