Date: 7 Sep 1995 14:06:00 GMT Organization: Freie Universitaet Berlin Lines: 45 Message-ID: <42mu88$e8f@fu-berlin.de> NNTP-Posting-Host: fub46.fddi1.fu-berlin.de (160.45.1.46) X-Access: 16 17 19 Hi all, I made a new installation of `uname -a`: FreeBSD ... 2.1.0-950726-SNAP FreeBSD 2.1.0-950726-SNAP #0 ... which I wanted to use as an NFS client. The appropriate parts of the kernel configuration are: options INET # InterNETworking options MROUTING # Multicast routing options FFS # Berkeley Fast Filesystem options NFS # Network Filesystem The network runse fine, i.e. all inet services are well off: telnet/rlogin, ftp, ping, etc... But when I try to mount an NFS with the following command: mount -t nfs existing-host:/nfsdir /mnt I get the message: NFS Portmap: RPC: Program not registered and the process hangs for(almost)ever, i.e. until I'll stop it. So, what am I doing wrong? The portmapper runs in the background as it should be, `ps -ax`: ... 18617 ?? IWs 0:00.07 portmap 18626 ?? IW 0:00.00 nfsiod -n 4 18627 ?? IW 0:00.00 nfsiod -n 4 18628 ?? IW 0:00.00 nfsiod -n 4 18629 ?? IW 0:00.00 nfsiod -n 4 ... Can anybody please tell me what I am doing wrong? thanks, -Gunther Schadow -- Gunther Schadow__________________Windsteiner Weg 54a, Berlin 14165, FR.
