NFS Share to subnet



Hi all

I'm trying to set up a distributed computing system I've run into a wall trying to get the Xraid shared out via NFS to the subnet.

The Xraid is mounted on a dual G4 1GHz OS X 10.3.5 machine. It shows up on the desktop and appears fine. When I look at the df -h I get:

Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/disk0s5 75G 18G 56G 25% /
devfs 96K 96K 0B 100% /dev
fdesc 1.0K 1.0K 0B 100% /dev
<volfs> 512K 512K 0B 100% /.vol
automount -nsl [292] 0B 0B 0B 100% /Network
automount -fstab [304] 0B 0B 0B 100% /automount/Servers
automount -static [304] 0B 0B 0B 100% /automount/static
/dev/disk3 2.0T 301G 1.7T 15% /Volumes/raid-test


The disk is there and mounted.

When I try to mount the disk from another machine, it times out. I looked in the logs on the machine serving out the share and found no entries at all. The logs I checked were secure.log and system.log.

The machines I'm trying to mount it from give me a pop-up window with:

"Connecting to nfs://hostname/Path/to/share

Could not connect to the server because the name or password is not correct."

In my console log, I get:

"mount_nfs:  can't access /Path/to/share:  Permission denied"

My export in NetInfo Manager is apparently set up properly. I did it manually first and then tried again with NFSManager. Neither option seems to do it.

I have under exports, the volume I want to share, with the following options:

maproot=nobody
network=165.112.114.0
mask=255.255.254.0

I've also tried with maproot=root, and network=165.112.114.1 to no avail.

Additionally, I've tried setting up other machines with that machine's IP address...effectively switching them and it worked on the other machine using the desired machine's IP address. I've tried different ports in the switch. I've tried different cables. I've even tried sleeping on the problem and attacking it with a fresh mind for three days in a row now. I'm stuck.
