NFS ( Network File System )

[tomselvam]

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.

Code: [Select]

mount IP:/urmachine/mountpoint  /localmountpiont/exampleland also make sure that ur nfs is running on server

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.
