Solaris 10: NFS mounting issue

Hi,

I posted it on another section, but seems I got no answer, so have to post it again here.

Here is situation.

Sun server A can mount other NFS from SUN servers fine, but it only can't mount NFS share that is from Windows server 2003 (server B)

It was fine, but all the sudden it failed, ONLY can't mount from window server B.

But other sun servers can mount NFS share from Windows sever B, no problem.

There is something wrong for sun server A, but I couldn't find out that caused that. And reboot is the only way for me to fix this issue.

If I tried to enter that mount point, like "cd <mount point", it just stuck there, and I have to do Ctrl+C to stop it, then I got ".... bad directory"

Any suggestion what to check?>

Well, you could check /etc/default/nfs and verify what NFS versions you accept, then you could also try and mount it as a WebNFS filesystem by running:

mount nfs://<server>/share <mountpoint>

the WebNFS behaves quite different from normal NFS since it cares less about RPC, hence its quite a good test when troubleshooting.

.7/M.

If I change some setting at /etc/default/nfs, how can i start the new setting?It might not be the version problem, because it worked in the morning, then at noon, it stopped working..

I think that an update to /etc/default/nfs only takes effect when you restart nfsd and lockd, or when you mount an NFS filesystem. .7/M.

Hello,

Have you found a solution to your issue?

I am having an nfs problem on solaris 10 as well.

I am not able to automount home from another solaris 10 server. Yet, home is mounting fine on all my other server ( non solaris 10 )

Nis works fine.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks
