I'm trying to do an NFS install of the
I've followed the instructions for setting up the nfs server as per
http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Installation_Guide-en-US/s1-steps-network-installs-x86.html
And then proceeded to the instructions for the install at
http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Installation_Guide-en-US/s1-begininstall-nfs-x86.html
I can mount the NFS export from another Linux box, so I am convinced the
NFS server is correctly configured. When I get to the prompt to enter
the IP address of the NFS server and the mount point, I enter the
correct (I'm sure) info, and then hit enter. I am greeted with this:
Error
That directory could not be
mounted from the server
OK
mount: RPC: Authentication error; why = Failed (unspecified error)
I have copied the iso to the exported directory:
cp ~jthomas/Download/K12LTSP-5.0.0EL-64bit-dvd.iso /mnt/iso/
Here's my /etc/exports
# cat /etc/exports
/mnt/iso *(ro,no_root_squash)
I restarted the nfs server after creating /etc/exports, and everything
there looks OK:
# service nfs restart
Shutting down NFS mountd: [ OK ]
Shutting down NFS daemon: [ OK ]
Shutting down NFS quotas: [ OK ]
Shutting down NFS services: [ OK ]
Starting NFS services: [ OK ]
Starting NFS quotas: [ OK ]
Starting NFS daemon: [ OK ]
Starting NFS mountd: [ OK ]
When I try to mount from the installtion scripts, /var/log/messages
tells me this:
Jan 20 13:04:17 spiff mountd[20920]: connect from 192.168.1.123 to proc
(1) in mountd: request from unauthorized host
Any help here would be very much appreciated!
