I am trying to use the NFS server (NFS version 3) in my VM using a DomU kernel
(Fedora Core 3 - 2.6.11.12-xenU). It is not working for me. I see that many
other people got it to work and I can''t seem to find anywhere that
tells me what the problem might be.
For DomU, I enabled all of the appropriate NFS modules (statically linked in
the kernel), rebuilt the kernel, updated my VM to use the new kernel (including
copying all of the lib/modules to the VM) and booted my VM. I started the NFS
server (everything starts OK) and shared a folder in the VM. According to
exportfs, my folder is shared. When I try to mount to the share either locally
from within the VM itself or remotely from an NFS client, I get the following
error message:
mount -t nfs 192.168.123.80:/tmp /mnt
mount: 192.168.123.80:/tmp failed, reason given by server: Permission
denied
Here''s the wierd thing - If I shutdown my VM and update its config
file to use an NFS-enabled Dom0 kernel (2.6.11.12-xen0), everything works fine.
I start NFS after the VM boots and from my client I can now mount to my share
and see the files in the share. I don''t understand why domU is not
working (my network is working fine and I don''t have iptables enabled).
My NFS share is shared the following way (contents from /etc/exports):
/tmp *(ro,sync,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash)
Any help here would be greatly appreciated; I am completely stuck on this
issue.
Thanks,
Eric
