Description Aloril 2004-07-14 03:19:01 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510

Description of problem:
Cryptographic File System from Fedora Extras

/etc/fstab contains line:
localhost:/.cfsfs       /mnt/crypt  nfs
port=3049,noauto,noexec,nodev,nosuid,intr,rw

/etc/exports contains line:
/.cfsfs         localhost()


With Fedora 2 mount it fails:
# /bin/mount -v /mnt/crypt
mount to NFS server 'localhost' failed: server is down.
RPC Error: 0 ( Success )

Ethereal shows: Portmap V2 GETPORT Call


With Fedora 1 mount it succeeds:
# ./fedora1.mount -v /mnt/crypt
mount: failed with nfs mount version 4, trying 3..
localhost:/.cfsfs on /mnt/crypt type nfs
(rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,port=3049,intr,addr=127.0.0.1,addr=127.0.0.1)

Ethereal shows: Portmap V2 DUMP Call



Everything else is same on this machine, only mount executable is
different.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
util-linux-2.12-18  kernel-2.6.5-1.358

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install cfs using yum with config at
http://www.fedorafaq.org/samples/yum.conf
2. service cfsd start
3. try same with mount executable from fedora1
    

Actual Results:  2. cfsd starts, mount fails
3. mount succeeds


Expected Results:  2. mount should have succeeded

Additional info:

not using kernel-2.6.6-1.435 because network doesn't come up, haven't
looked more at it

Comment 1 Elliot Lee 2004-07-14 19:26:14 UTC

I'll be happy to try for a fix once the problem is explained. Right
now the most important thing is discovering the source of the problem
- I can't do that since cfs is involved. Would you try to track down
the problem, perhaps with the help of the cfs authors?

Comment 2 Johan Vromans 2004-08-24 20:51:11 UTC

CFS is quite critical for me. I'm running FC2 w/ updates to date.
How can I help?

Kernel: 2.6.7-1.494.2.2
util-linux: 2.12-18
cfs (+ -utils): 1.4.1-0.fdr.3.2

Comment 3 Elliot Lee 2004-12-10 15:30:27 UTC

This is a util-linux bug that will need to be worked out with the cfs
authors - cfs does non-standard things that I just can't debug very
effectively.

Comment 4 Aloril 2005-09-23 07:35:52 UTC

Here is simple test which does not require any extra programs like cfs to test:
/etc/exports has this line:
/null localhost(sync)

Then this command works:
/bin/mount -o intr localhost:/null /c

but this command fails:
/bin/mount -o port=3049,intr localhost:/null /c
with this message:
mount to NFS server 'localhost' failed: server is down.


Both commands work with Fedora 1 mount program, even under Fedora 4.

Comment 5 Karel Zak 2005-09-30 14:56:38 UTC

Sorry, but FC2 is unsupported. It's maintained by The Fedora Legacy Project only.

Comment 6 Karel Zak 2005-10-31 13:45:58 UTC

Closing. Please, update to FC4.

Comment 7 Johan Vromans 2005-10-31 14:25:26 UTC

You mean that it works under FC4?
