Title: nfs-utils under 2.5
Post by: gerald_clark on November 22, 2009, 03:29:07 AM

I am having a problem with nfs-server running mounted.
rpc.mountd fails to start unless it is after exportfs.

Another issue is that /usr/local/etc/exports is a symlink into mounted extension, and not writeable.
It does not appear to be used, though. /etc/exports is used.

I will test the rpc.mountd function when I get home to my nfs setup.

The exports file in /usr/local/etc/ is just there to be copied to /etc/ by the startup script if it does not exist.  The "cp -p" function copies the target, that is the real file.

Taken from the startup script:

[ -f /etc/exports ] || cp -p /usr/local/etc/exports /etc/

Upon looking at Slackware's nfs init script, exportfs is indeed before starting the daemons.  I will change the init.d script to match it.

Thanks, Jason.
That fixed the server problem.
