UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users

Can someone please help me out here.

I have SunSolaris server that has a ridiculous about of space on it. several hundred gigabytes of space. There are lots of partitions on this server that has at least 100Gs on them.

I want to mount just one of these partitions on my Linux server so I can utilize/access this space.

How can this be done? When I attempted to run the following, i get errors:

Code:

mount blah.blah.net:/prod /mnt/monitor/

I get an error that says the following:

mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting blah.blah.net:/prod

blah.blah.net - this is the sun solaris server that has the several gigabytes of space.

The server on which i'm running the mount command is the Linux server that I want to mount the Solaris file system on.

Can someone please help me with this?

Thanks

How it the FS being exported? (read-write, access, root-acces...etc..)

I'm afraid I may not know exactly how to answer that question.

I will say i'm trying to mount the filesystem as the root user and I'd like the filesystem to be mounted as read-write so I can access and write to it.

if you have any commands I can try out, please let me know.

thank you.

You would have to look on the solaris server how/what is exported in either /etc/exports or /etc/dfs/sharetab (man share...)

The output of /etc/dfs/sharetab has the following entry in it:

/prod/enterprisedb - nfs ro,anon=0
