[SLUG] NFS mount problem in FC5

["Selim Jahangir" <s.jahangir@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Guys
I am having trouble in nfs mounting.
Folowing scenario
1. FC5 server say host1 (public IP like 203.118.234.1)
2. VMware is running on it
3. Guest Host is host2 (private ip : 192.168.88.128) with fc5. host
bridged with host1 using vmnet virtual device.
4. I have exported /tmp in exports file
/tmp  *(ro)
5. service nfs restart on host1
6. from host2, I typed
Mount host1:/tmp /mnt

I get an error message : refused nfs request from host1  xxxx: illegal
port port number 

Did you notice that it says from host1 , should it not be host2. Because
of bridge connection and VMware it is doing something wrong.


Any idea? Is it for 


Cheers
Selim

You want this in /etc/hosts.allow to allow localhost

   ALL: 127.
   ALL: [::1]/128

and the other protocols you want to allow, eg

   sshd: ALL


And this is /etc/hosts.deny

   ALL: ALL
