I hoping someone can help me get my NFS working properly. I don't know why I'm having little issues... Overall, NFS is working, therefore, the problem may not be with NFS. I can ssh to remote nodes and view NFS shared directories (/home). Here is the problem, when on a node and I open a file using vim then exit I get the following error:
Code:
Viminfo file is not writable: /home/"MyUserID"/.viminfo
The weird thing is if I "vi /home/"myUserID"/.viminfo" (still on the node. Note, /home is a NFS directory) then exit (no error), moreover now when I open a file using vim on the same node the error doesn't occur. However, the error comes back the next time I log on.
Also, for whatever reason I can't set up passwordless ssh. I have done this successfully in the past on FC8.
For passwordless ssh, I have done/check the following:
Code:
ssh-keygen -t rsa (on remote node)
mv ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
set (sshd_config):
RSAAuthentication yes
PubkeyAuthentication yes
chmod 700 ~/.ssh
I don't really care about the vim error, but I need to get passwordless ssh working. However, I think the problems are related. It seems like my home directory is not being read/processed upon log on (Again, /home is a NFS directory on the server).

Hi,

I'm trying to share some directories with NFS among Debian machines. In order to do so, I installed nfs-common and nfs-kernel-server on the server machine. It seemed that starting portmap daemon lasted a long time and I get the following messages in /var/log/messages:

Hi,
I am trying to move a local directory from a local disk to a nfs disk that has been shared on another file server. I am using this tar command:

showmount
SHOWMOUNT(8) BSD System Manager's Manual SHOWMOUNT(8)NAME
showmount -- show remote NFS mounts on host
SYNOPSIS
showmount [-Ae36] [-a | -d] [host]
DESCRIPTION
showmount shows status information about the NFS server on host. By default it prints the names of all hosts that have NFS file systems
mounted on the host. See NFS: Network File System Protocol Specification, RFC 1094, Appendix A, and NFS: Network File System Version 3
Protocol Specification, Appendix I, for a detailed description of the protocol.
-A Search for NFS servers advertised via Bonjour.
-a List all mount points in the form: host:dirpath
-d List directory paths of mount points instead of hosts.
-e Show the host's exports list.
-3 Use mount protocol Version 3, compatible with NFS Version 3.
-6 Use only IPv6 addresses to contact servers.
SEE ALSO mount(1), mountd(8), nfsd(8), mDNSResponder(8)BUGS
The mount daemon running on the server only has an idea of the actual mounts, since the NFS server is stateless. showmount will only display
the information as accurately as the mount daemon reports it.
HISTORY
The showmount utility first appeared in 4.4BSD.
