You are correct Duke, a dfstab entry or a sharetab
entry will also envoke the nfsd daemon.
I guess the nfs/server was running but the /var/svc/log
for nfs-server was playing tricks on me.
Thanks

Does anyone know how I stop nfs/lockd and all of the associated services from starting at bootup? There's nothing in the /etc/rc*.d files to rename. That was my first idea. I also tried renaming /etc/init.d/nfs.server to something else, but that did not work either.
Any ideas would be greatly... (2 Replies)

I am trying to get a NFS share on a Solaris 10 branded zone. I have read that this is not possible...but I was hoping someone here could tell me different.
share -F nfs -o ro,anon=0 /dir
This would really surprise me that you cannot do this.

mountd(1M) mountd(1M)
NAME
mountd - server for NFS mount requests and NFS access checks
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/nfs/mountd [-v] [-r]
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.
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 con-
sole, as well as how it got that result.

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.
