    keep getting nfs error...

    Hi...

    I'm hoping someone can help me out.

    I keep getting the following message when I try to do a mount on an nfs client...

    ... failed, reason given by server: Permission denied

    My /etc/exports file on the server side is...

    /share/vnotes/fs1 192.168.51/0/255.255.255.0(rw,no_root_squash)
    /share/vnotes/fs2 192.168.51/0/255.255.255.0(rw,no_root_squash)

    I have no entries for the hosts file on either the client or the server side as the access to either is strictly by IP.

    the line I'm executing on the client side is :

    mount -t nfs -o rw 192.168.51.55:/share/vnotes/fs1 fs1

    Can anyone help a newbie to nfs sharing?

    Thanks!

    Found! nfs mount problems...

    I found my error... It was one too many /'s in the /etc/exports file should have been the ...192.168.51.0... instead of the same IP range with a / at ...192.168.51/0...

    My typo!

    Thanks for looking regardless!
