The NIS/NFS server is currently running Red Hat 7.3. I made a change in /etc/exports to try to extend NIS/NFS services to the new iMacs in our office. When I restarted NFS none of the linux machines, that had been working just fine before, could mount a users home directory on login. Upon investigation I had a mistype in the /etc/exports file. When I fixed that and restarted NFS the Red Hat 9 clients could log in and mount the users home directories but my Fedora, and RHEL machines could only authenticate via NIS but could not mount a users home directory via NFS. I have also reverted the /etc/exports file back to it's original form but still have the same problem. Has anyone experienced this and found a fix? </blockquote> Try turning off the firewall on the RHEL & Fedora boxes or better yet configure the firewall to let NFS to work. I think redhat-config-securitylevel is used to configure firewall settings in RHEL. </body> </html>
