[comp.sys.apollo] nfs mounts

rtp1@tank.uchicago.edu (raymond thomas pierrehumbert) (05/09/90)

I am trying to mount Sun and Iris disk volumes on my APollo DN10000
using NFS (10.0.p with os 10.1.p) and I just can't get it to 
work.  It used to work with the old NFS the Sun and Iris people
were using, but they upgraded their software, and it no longer works for me.  I can still
do mounts of older systems.

When I issue
/etc/mount shiva.uchicago.edu:/usr /usr/users/me/shiva
I get the message
     Access denied.
What does this mean?  Does it have something to do with
priveliged ports?  I even tried changing user and group
Unix id's to match those on the remote systems.  Evidently
some kind of additional authentication is being
performed that I don't know about.
    The funny thing is that I can still mount the Sun and
Iris volumes on macs via NFS/Gatorbox just fine. Can somebody
help me?  I'm desperate, as most of my disk space is out
on the network.

I posted a similar message on the net regarding this problem
several weeks ago.  I also placed a call with Apollo hotline.
The response I got was that the problem was coming from my
running named.  I have meant to try stopping named to see
if I can mount anything.  I am running 10.2p with 2.1.p NVS
on the DN10000.  I have tried everything including giving
root privileges to the port.

Any private replies you might get, would you please pass to me.
