UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

i checked out those files the box are listed in each one anything else dave i will reread teh article again but i checked out what it said but it wont hurt me to read it again

Check /etc/services, /etc/rpc, "rpcinfo -p hostname",
and mountd.

i checked the 1st one the nfsd and lockd are there what am i looking 4 in /etc/rpc and when i run rpcinfo -p hostname also what about mountd?

Run these commands and post the results:
uname -a
rpcinfo -p
rpcinfo -T udp `hostname` rpcbind

Some process or processes is already claiming to offer nfs and mountd rpc's... can you contact them?

rpcinfo -T udp `hostname` nfs
rpcinfo -T udp `hostname` mountd

Umm...are you already running the servers???

ps -ef | grep nfs

duuhhh i am such a doofus it was already running..but perderabo what purpose does running rpcinfo -T what are u looking 4 and when should u run it

Those last 2 rpc commands just call the nfs and mountd servers to see if they are responding at all.
