Hi,

I am facing problem during mount sharing. I am using two machines Suse and Red Hat. Trying to share a data on suse machine from Red Hat by using mount command.

The problem is that after rebooting mount won't work. How to solve this problem.

What i did?
1. create a folder on Suse (data)
2. Assign all permissions
3. create a folder on Red Hat (share)
4. mount Red Hat Ip:/data/share

After rebooting it won't work..

Waiting for your response.

Kammy..

You have to add a new line in your /etc/fstab correspondig to the filesystem you want to mount. You also have to add a new line in your /etc/exports.
Have a look at nfs, fstab and exports manpages for options and syntax.

Hi Thanks for your response.

The problem was that i tried the same but i am getting "Server is down" message.

I did this..

#/etc/fstab

#Directory Mount Point Type Options Dump FSCK

192.168.1.100:/data/files /mnt/nfs nfs soft,nfsvers=2 0 0

Thanks
Kammy

That seems to be ok.
Check /etc/exports on the other machine.
Give
To see wether the nfs service is up and the filesystem exported.
Check thant rpc/nfs services start at boot time also.
Give
on the NFS server to see RPC services running there...

Hi Sir,

mount is working fine but after rebboting the mount is not working. I need to again mount it manually.

I need permanent mount...

Is there any solution for permanent mount?

Thanks
kammy.

Perhaps it's because the system is trying to mount before network is available...

- You could write a script which mounts it and then configure it to start at boot time in the correct run level, after network is started...

- You could also use an automounter (autofs)...

Regards.

Could you please tell me how to use an automounter (autofs)...

so that i can get permanent mount.
