NFS ( Network File System )
« on: April 30, 2004, 06:13:58 AM »
Hi,

I had installed NFS ( Network file system ) in a machine and tried mounting the nfs share from another machine using the

mount -t nfs ip:/share mountpoint

command

after a wait it returns a message

RPC Timedout

What is this error about. I have used static ip for both the machines and the machine ping each other without any loss.

Kindly help.

Tom

Hi

       do one thing, first go in to command prompt as user at the client side.
 
#mkdir /mnt/file name
for example # mkdir /mnt/labco

after this-
#mount ipaddress_of_nfs_server:/File_path local_file_path

example #mount 192.168.50.10:/root/tools /mnt/labco

where /root/tools is the path

now after tht go to /mnt
then ls
u will get the dir accordin to ur name and u will get all the files

today i tried it worked properly.
