[UBUNTU] mount.nfs fails in Ubuntu / Works on Red Hat!!!
Gurus,

I want log in locally to my Lucid (10.04) workstation and have my code saved over the network on my samba account

At work, all developers have samba user ids and when we were running Red Hat, we went thru the following procedure to get setup.

* open a shell session to NFS server and execute the “id” command to get my samba user information.

Code:
$> ssh –l alberto our_nfs_server
$> id
uid=7090(alberto) gid=100(users) groups=100(users)

* Create locally a login on my Linux workstation with the same login and uid.

Code:
$>sudo useradd –u 7090 –g 100 –d /home/alberto –s /bin/bash alberto

* Define a password for my created login.
Code:
$>sudo passwd alberto

* Change permissions on the /home/alberto directory. Example:
Code:
$>sudo chown alberto:100 /home/alberto

* Place this line at end of fstab:
Code:
      our_nfs_server:/d0/homedirs/alberto /home/alberto nfs defaults 0 0

* Mount the local directory
Code:
$>sudo mount -a

Code:
mount error(13): Permission denied
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)
mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting our_nfs_server:/d0/homedirs/alberto

It does not work at all!!?? However, the same procedure on a RedHat workstation works fine. No errors.

We want to move all of our workstations/servers to Ubuntu so any help is welcome.

Thank you!!!

Al.

LEARN ABOUT REDHAT

rhnsd

UP2DATE(8)							   Red Hat, Inc.							UP2DATE(8)

NAME

       rhnsd - a program for quering the Red Hat Network for updates and information

SYNOPSIS

       rhnsd [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

       rhnsd  is  a  daemon  process that runs in the background and periodically polls the Red Hat Network to see if there are any queued actions
       available. If any are queued, it runs them.

       rhnsd is typically started from the init scripts in /etc/init.d/rhnsd when it's time to poll the Red  Hat  Network  servers  for  available
       updates and actions. The default interval is every 120 minutes.	The minimum polling interval is 60 minutes.

       To  check for updates, rhnsd runs an external program called rhn_check. This is a small application that actually makes the network connec-
       tion to Red Hat Networks.

       The rhnsd daemon does not listen on any network ports, nor does it ever talk to the network directly. Any network activity is done via  the
       rhn_check utility.

       rhnsd  can  be configure by editing the /etc/sysconfig/rhn/rhnsd config file. This is actually the configuration file the rhnsd init script
       /etc/init.d/rhnsd uses.

       -i, --interval
	      Specify the interval that rhnsd should wait between checking the Red Hat Network. Default is 120 minutes, the minimum is 60 minutes.
	      This can also be specified in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/rhnsd

       -v, --verbose
	      output more information about what rhnsd is doing.

       -f, --foreground
	      force the rhnds process to run in the foreground instead of automatically backgrounding itself, as it does by default.

       FILES
       /etc/sysconfig/rhn/rhnsd
	      Configuration settings for the rhnsd daemons init script.
       /usr/sbin/rhn_check
	      The external program launched by rhnsd to connect to the Red Hat Network and retrieve any actions that have queued up.
       /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid
	      A certification that authenticates the client machine to the Red Hat Network. Generated via the up2date or rhnreg_ks utility.

SEE ALSO

       The rhnsd daemon is tightly coupled with Red Hat Network.  Visit <http://www.redhat.com/network> for access or to sign up.
