There's no firewall. But I've done a test to check it: --- root@cluster2:~# telnet cluster1 111 Trying 137.226.167.241... Connected to 137.226.167.241. Escape character is '^]'. TEST TEST Connection closed by foreign host. --- So it's no problem to connect to the portmapper of cluster1 from cluster2. -- 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
