An urgent request of this kind community-
All of a sudden, two our our Tru64 boxes have decided they won't listen to
each other's NFS requests, whereas in the past they've been very happy.
Initially I checked for daemons rpc.statd, rpc.lockd, mountd, etc., then
restarted nfs and nfsmount in /sbin/init.d by hand on each, then went so
far as to reboot each... no dice. Each box is happily exporting and
mounting disks to half a dozen other machines in the same environment, but
have decided to shut each other out. Showmount -e from one box, querying
the other, produces the same RPC: Program unregistered errors.
Any quick suggestions? One of these boxes could be considered a central
disk server for our little UNIX research group ('brigus'), and it exports
a dozen-odd disks. Only the machine 'wessex', a satellite DS10 (one of
several, the others reporting on problems) cannot pick them up. I have
changed *nothing* on the machines in question.
