nfs mounting

[redhatdude at bellsouth.net]

In my case I put this in /etc/sysconfig/nfs as suggested by someone.

# Created 05.07.05 by Tony Molloy
# based on work by Christopher K. Johnson ( dorigo.net )

RPCNFSDCOUNT=32

# ports for statd daemon
STATD_PORT=4000
STATD_OUTGOING_PORT=4004

# ports for lockd daemon
LOCKD_TCPPORT=4001
LOCKD_UDPPORT=4001

# ports for mountd daemon
#MOUNTD_NFS_V2=no
#MOUNTD_NFS_V3=no
MOUNTD_PORT=4002

# ports for rquota daemon
#RQUOTAD=no
RQUOTAD_PORT=4003

STATD, LOCKD and MOUNTD run on dynamic ports which is a pain when you  
have a firewall activated. After creating and adding that to /etc/ 
sysconfig/nfs, I allowed access to those ports in the firewall (both  
tcp and udp ports) and finally disabled selinux for nsfd in system- 
config-securitylevel.
Once I did that everything worked fine. Every time I change /etc/ 
exports I issue the command exportfs -af and restart nfs as a  
service. I'm still trying to figure out how to make selinux work with  
NFSD, if someone knows please let  me know.
I hope this helps.
