Your nfs server should have a program called rpcbind (older systems may call it portmap). Is rpcbind eveb running? On the nfs server you should be able to use the command "rpcinfo" and see a long list of stuff. Do you? The list should include entiries for mountd. If you have never mounted anything before from your nfs server, you may just need to turn on the nfs server daemons. If this used to work but it no longer does, your rpcbind may be out to lunch. You can try the warm start procedure on the man page, but you may need a reboot to bring it back.

For this command: mount -F UFS -o rw,remount /usr
mount -F UFS -o ro,remount /usr -- doesn't work for me (read only mode).
Frankly speaking, I've only been able to remount for read/write (rw). I've always had to reboot the system for read only (ro) to take effect.
Thanks. (2 Replies)

mountd
mountd(1M) System Administration Commands mountd(1M)
NAME
mountd - server for NFS mount requests and NFS access checks
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/nfs/mountd [-v] [-r]
DESCRIPTION
mountd is an RPC server that answers requests for NFS access information and file system mount requests. It reads the file
/etc/dfs/sharetab to determine which file systems are available for mounting by which remote machines. See sharetab(4). nfsd running on the
local server will contact mountd the first time an NFS client tries to access the file system to determine whether the client should get
read-write, read-only, or no access. This access can be dependent on the security mode used in the remoted procedure call from the client.
See share_nfs(1M).
The command also provides information as to what file systems are mounted by which clients. This information can be printed using the show-
mount(1M) command.
The mountd daemon is automatically invoked by share(1M).
Only super user can run the mountd daemon.
OPTIONS
The options shown below are supported for NVSv2/v3 clients. They are not supported for Solaris NFSv4 clients.
-r Reject mount requests from clients. Clients that have file systems mounted will not be affected.
-v Run the command in verbose mode. Each time mountd determines what access a client should get, it will log the result to the console,
as well as how it got that result.
FILES
/etc/dfs/sharetab shared file system table
ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
| ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE |

SEE ALSO
nfsd(1M), share(1M), share_nfs(1M), showmount(1M), nfs(4), sharetab(4), attributes(5)
NOTES
Since mountd must be running for nfsd to function properly, mountd is automatically started by the svc:/network/nfs/server service. See
nfs(4).
Some routines that compare hostnames use case-sensitive string comparisons; some do not. If an incoming request fails, verify that the case
of the hostname in the file to be parsed matches the case of the hostname called for, and attempt the request again.
