    Showmount question

    Hello all,

    When doing a $showmount -a 192.168.35.80 I get the following result:
    All mount points on 192.168.35.80:
    172.16.1.107:/mnt/images
    192.168.1.2:/mnt/images
    192.168.35.90:/mnt/images

    The thin here is that the only mount that needs to be up and listed is the last one 192.168.35.90:/mnt/images

    The files written in 192.168.35.90/mnt/images are immediately replicated into 192.168.35.80/mnt/images and this is how is working and the way I want it to. The thing here is that I feel that having in the mounting list other 2 IPs could somehow interfere reason for me to want to remove them.

    The other two IPs where previously used at some point but not any more.

    Where can I find those lines in order to remove them.

    Thanks so much guys.

    Eloy

    The man page tells us that the '-a' option is unreliable, it could be that these are not active mounts any more. What happens if you use '-d' instead?

    $showmount -d 192.168.35.80 I get the following result:
    Directories on 192.168.35.80:
    /mnt/images

    Which are the files that keep the config information for NFS mounting?

    Probably inside one of them the 172.16.1.107:/mnt/images and 192.168.1.2:/mnt/images are still written but not entirely taken into account.

    NFS directories are usually in /etc/exports on the server and in /etc/fstab on the client

    How do I start and stop NFS service?

    Nope, cant find anything related to

    172.16.1.107:/mnt/images
    192.168.1.2:/mnt/images

    It's where they have always been on mine.

    Have a browse through Linux NFS-HOWTO it may give you the answer
