NFS v4

[ovemh]

I try to use my B2 as a nfs server with the NFSv4-protocol. I have everything installed but my client wont connect:

Code: Select all

sudo mount -t nfs4 192.168.my.bubba: /home/client/bubba
mount.nfs4: Protocol not supported

The same command works fine when i mount my client to a different machine, so the problem seems to be at bubba.

By running rpcinfo at bubba i get the output;

Code: Select all

bubba:/sbin#  rpcinfo -p localhost | grep -i nfs
    100003    2   udp   2049  nfs
    100003    3   udp   2049  nfs
    100003    2   tcp   2049  nfs
    100003    3   tcp   2049  nfs

From a different machine, this is the output:

Code: Select all

user@server:/sbin$ rpcinfo -p localhost | grep -i nfs
    100003    2   udp   2049  nfs
    100003    3   udp   2049  nfs
    100003    4   udp   2049  nfs
    100003    2   tcp   2049  nfs
    100003    3   tcp   2049  nfs
    100003    4   tcp   2049  nfs

As you can see: The version 4 -protocol are not included in the Bubba export.. I have searched everywhere around the internet, but cant find any proper solution,.. Any recommended solutions?

What version of NFS is the Bubba running? Is NFS4 installed?

[ovemh]

At the Bubba I get following output

Code: Select all

bubba:/sbin# yum --version nfs
Warning, could not load sqlite, falling back to pickle
2.4.0

So I suppose it is 2.4.0

At the other machine/server which also runs as server with NFSv4 running automatically i get:

user@server:/sbin$ sudo yum --version nfs
3.2.25

My client connects to the other machine/server with no problems. Well I had a newly total reinstalation ad lots of sudo-apt get updates at the Bubba. Actually I reinstalled the two of them simultaneously. Is it my repository at Bubba who is outdated? The other machine/server is running Ubuntu...

My repository in Bubba is:

bubba:/sbin# cat /etc/apt/sources.list

Using yum on a debian system? That's novel.

Anyway, I haven't used NFS for a long time, but is not your problem that you're specifying NFS4 in your mount command when the Bubba doesn't have it installed? Try it with just NFS, e.g.

Code: Select all

mount -t nfs 192.168.my.bubba: /home/client/bubba
