Hi @all,

I was also intrested in using nfs on my n900. I tried to make it like alfmar has descripted it. But something goes wrong.
Probably I got a complete Blackout (Don't seeing the forest because of the many trees)

PC with Ubuntu 9.10 (IP: 192.168.1.200)
N900 (IP: 192.168.1.13)
I've installed unfs3 like descripted above. Starting, restarting and stopping of /etc/init.d/unfs3 is no problem.
/etc/exports on N900 looks like following (First I tried /home/user/MyDocs/downloads but I decided to make it exactly like the description in this thread):
Code:
/ 192.168.1.200(rw,no_root_squash)
By mounting with sudo mount.nfs 192.168.1.13:/ /mnt follows an error message:
Code:
mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 192.168.1.13:/
I also tried to modify /etc/hosts by adding
Code:
192.168.1.200 media
But no result.

To see, if nfs is running I made this:
Code:
media@media:~$ rpcinfo -p 192.168.1.13
   program vers proto   port
    100000    2   tcp    111  portmapper
    100000    2   udp    111  portmapper
    100003    3   udp   2049  nfs
    100003    3   tcp   2049  nfs
    100005    1   udp   2049  mountd
    100005    3   udp   2049  mountd
    100005    1   tcp   2049  mountd
    100005    3   tcp   2049  mountd
media@media:~$ rpcinfo -p 192.168.1.200
   program vers proto   port
    100000    2   tcp    111  portmapper
    100000    2   udp    111  portmapper
    100024    1   udp  37344  status
    100024    1   tcp  43724  status
    100021    1   udp  43917  nlockmgr
    100021    3   udp  43917  nlockmgr
    100021    4   udp  43917  nlockmgr
    100021    1   tcp  52816  nlockmgr
    100021    3   tcp  52816  nlockmgr
    100021    4   tcp  52816  nlockmgr
    100003    2   udp   2049  nfs
    100003    3   udp   2049  nfs
    100003    4   udp   2049  nfs
    100003    2   tcp   2049  nfs
    100003    3   tcp   2049  nfs
    100003    4   tcp   2049  nfs
    100005    1   udp  51989  mountd
    100005    1   tcp  41052  mountd
    100005    2   udp  51989  mountd
    100005    2   tcp  41052  mountd
    100005    3   udp  51989  mountd
    100005    3   tcp  41052  mountd
This looked ok to me...

I also tried to edit a /etc/hosts.deny and a /etc/hosts.allow although it was not descripted or documented. I'm really despaired. I'm sure it cannot be a big thing.

Does anyone has an idea?
Thanks a lot in advance!

I'm sorry if I should have made a new Thread for this.

Greetings,...
