    NFS - RPC Timed Out

    Hi-

    I've been trying to set up NFS on my two networked machines. One is nipper (RH 8) at 192.168.0.4 and the other is jonah (MDK 9) at 192.168.0.3.

    When I try and mount jonah from nipper, I get the following:

    # mount 192.168.0.3:/home /mnt/home
    mount: RPC: Timed out

    Here's the setup that I have on both machines:

    #exports
    /usr 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0(rw)
    /home 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0(rw)

    # hosts.deny
    portmap:ALL
    lockd:ALL
    mountd:ALL
    rquotad:ALL
    statd:ALL

    # hosts.allow
    portmap: 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0
    lockd: 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0
    rquotad: 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0
    mountd: 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0
    statd: 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0

    Can anyone offer any help?

    Thanks!

    What does iptables -L give you?? if you have no firewall loaded you should see:

    Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
    target prot opt source destination

    Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
    target prot opt source destination

    Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
    target prot opt source destination
    search first, ask second.

    Thanks Jumped. I disabled the firewall rules I had. Now I get:

    # mount 192.168.0.3:/home /mnt/home
    mount: mount point /mnt/home does not exist

    Well, I thought I had this all sorted out. But when I mount jonah from nipper, everything is fine. But when I try and mount nipper from jonah, I get:

    # mount 192.168.0.4:/home /mnt/home
    mount: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Unable to receive

    I have both machines set up the same, as far as the exports, hosts.allow, and hosts.deny.

    Any suggestions?
