Manly) Newsgroups: comp.os.386bsd.questions Subject: Help! Having trouble mounting nfs on FreeBSD Date: Fri, 26 Aug 1994 10:03:12 -0400 Organization: Cornell University Lines: 21 Sender: cam2@cornell.edu (Verified) Message-ID: <cam2-2608941003120001@yod.cit.cornell.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: yod.cit.cornell.edu Hello all, I've got FreeBSD finally running on my poor PS/2. (It's a dog, but running FreeBSD on it is much more interesting than DOS.) However, since it's only got 80 meg of disk space, I really need to be able to mount parts of my SPARC's disk for more space. When I try to mount it, though, I get the following error: NFS Portmap: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Timed out Any ideas what's causing the timeout, and/or how I can fix it? Thanks! ---------------------------- Christopher A. Manly CIT/NR Collaboration Systems cam2@cornell.edu (607) 255-5134 PGP Public Key available upon request
