NFS problem

Sunday, 23 March 2008

I'm trying to set up an NFS file server on one of the boxes on my LAN
and have gotten stuck. On the server, I used system-config-nfs to create
the following /etc/exports file:

/home/magnusg/music  192.168.1.11(rw,sync) 192.168.1.12(rw,sync)
192.168.1.13(rw,sync)

to allow the other three boxes r/w access to the
directory /home/magnusg/music on the server (192.168.1.14).

Also on the server, I used system-config-services to start nfs and
nfslock on run levels 3 and 5. Then I checked NFS4 on the firewall
configuration widget system-config-firewall to open tcp and udp ports
2049. Then I rebooted the server.

On one of the clients I then did (as root):

mkdir /mnt/PuteF
mount 192.168.1.14:/home/magnusg/music /mnt/PuteF

and got the error message:
mount: mount to NFS server '192.168.1.14' failed: System Error: No route
to host

I'm guessing I need to open more ports, but which ones and where? The
four boxes are connected to a Linksys router.

Thanks for the help! --Jerry
