I can mount F7 directories on the F8 machine using mount -t nfs didius:/home/foobar /mnt/foobar But when I try the opposite, mounting the F8 directory on F7 mount -t nfs poirot:/home/rhombux /mnt/rhombux it fails with the message "mount: mount to NFS server 'poirot' failed: System Error: No route to host." I have tried with SELINUX and the firewall both disabled but that seems to have no effect. The set up on each machine seems to be the same. I've set up /etc/exports on each machine On the F7 machine (didius) /home/foobar poirot(rw,sync,no_root_squash) On the F8 machine (poirot) /home/rhombux didius(rw,sync,no_root_squash) exportfs -a returns no errors.

I can ping each machine from the other and I can use ssh to access each of the machines from the other. Can anyone point me at some further diagnostics I can look at or perhaps give me some hints about other things I can try? I had this working when both machines were F7. I'm beginning to suspect and F8 issue but I'm at the end of my ideas. </blockquote><div> Does `showmount` command list any exported mount points on FC8 server? didius$ showmount -e poirot </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> I'm going to be away from the machine for a while but this is driving me further nuts and I had to ask.
