Goes back to my original message.....

Hi,

Using SME 6.01 (www.contribs.org)  I've installed Gordon Rowells NFS
pkg.....portmap and nfs-utils. AFAIK NFS
is working....the service starts and it appears that I can export. On the
server that I intend to export to I get the following when I try to mount
-a

[root at spongebob etc]# mount -a
mount: RPC: Remote system error - Connection refused

My exports on the SME server looks like this:

/mytest 10.0.0.234(rw,insecure,sync,no_root_squash)

My fstab looks like this:

10.0.6.2:/mytest /mnt/myimport nfs defaults,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 0 0


any ideas for things to look for as to why I can't connect? My SME box is
running 6.0 and it is in server only mode....I tried adding

# nfs
rpc.nfsd: 10.0.0.234/255.0.0.0
rpc.mountd: 10.0.0.234/255.0.0.0

# portmap
portmap: 10.0.0.234/255.0.0.0

To hosts.allow.....still no dice....do I have to restart anything when I
make the change to hosts.allow? Any ideas appreciated....I'm trying to see
if I can do both Samba and LDAP to auth Windows XP and Linux (K12LTSP) and
export the home dirs via NFS to the K12LTSP box using an SME server....if
I'm successful it will be a lot easier than my current Samba/LDAP setup.
