Problems with NFS

Hi,

I'm having problems NFS mounting across two Tru64 machines.
The NFS server is an AlphaServer 4000 running Tru64 v4.0d and
the client is an Alphaserver ES40 running Tru64 v4.0f. I'm not in
a position to upgrade either machine at the moment, or even do a reboot.


NodeA is the server and NodeB the client. We are not using NIS.

NodeA has the following /etc/exports

/disk1 -rw=nodeb
/disk2 -rw=nodeb
/disk3 -rw=nodeb
/disk4 -rw=nodeb


I initially set up both server and client using the nsfconfig(8X) gui
and chose to set up /disk1 on the client. On completion, everything was
fine and /disk1 was happily mounted on NodeB. I could read and create
files no problem. So feeling quite pleased with myself, I unmounted the
file system, and tried a remount by hand, thus -


NodeB# mount -t nfs nodea:/disk1 /disk1
NFS Portmap: RPC: Program not registered
NFS Portmap: RPC: Program not registered
NFS Portmap: RPC: Program not registered

After this, I was unable to mount it using the gui either. Nothing
had changed on either machine (at least I didn't change anything!)


Digging around with rpcinfo gave me the following

NodeB# rpcinfo -p nodea
   program vers proto port
    100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper
    100000 2 udp 111 portmapper

program 100005 version 3 ready and waiting


(Note - long line above has been wrapped for readability)

I am now completely flummoxed. Apart from noting that the last bit above
looks rather suspicious, I'm at a loss what to look for next. Any
suggestions gratefully received.

Thanks in advance.
