    Default nfs stopped working!

    Clients are giving the following error:

    # mount -t nfs 10.1.0.16:/share/nethome /data/nethome
    # mount: 10.1.0.16:/share/nethome failed, reason given by server: Permission denied

    We tried rebooting the NAS device and the client.. Same error.
    Nothing on the web interface jumps out as a problem. Any suggestions?

    Default

    okay.. the NFS check boxes mysteriously turned off. And they didn't turn back on after reboot.

    Default

    So is this working?

    If NFS on the Server is enabled and clients are not able to successfully logon - here is some items to check to mounting nfs.

    Please enter these command from client side:
    1. rpcinfo -p IP_of_nfsserver
    You should see a list that contain : portmapper, nfs, mountd,nlockmgr, status

    2. showmount -e IP_of_nfsserver you should see a list of NFS shares
    II. check if your ip address has sufficient right to enter chosen share
    III. If above commands give a positive output, please use this mount options:

    mount -t nfs -o tcp, rsize=1500, wsize=1500
    IP_of_nfsserver:/share/SHARE_NAME

    IV. It could be a firewall on client side, for check it out, please turn off firewall.
    All the best,
