It turns out that systemd redirects messages logged to stderr to /dev/null by default, which means any and all start up error were lost. Once I figured that out, added 'StandardError=syslog+console' to all the service files which enabled me to see why rpc.nfsd was failing. The problem was /proc/fs/nfsd was not being mounted before rpc.nfsd was being started. So added the mount to the nfs-server.preconfig file which fixed the problem. Now I'm getting the following errors: rpc.nfsd[978]: rpc.nfsd: unable to bind inet TCP socket: errno 13 (Permission denied) rpc.nfsd[978]: rpc.nfsd: unable to bind inet6 TCP socket: errno 13 (Permission denied) rpc.nfsd[978]: rpc.nfsd: unable to set any sockets for nfsd These error go away when I put SELinux in permissive mode, which I will document in another bz... Is nfsd another filesystem to automount? I guess it doesn't matter as much for rpc_pipefs as nfsd's the only user. nfs-utils-1.2.4-7.fc16 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 16. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/nfs-utils-1.2.4-7.fc16 Package nfs-utils-1.2.4-7.fc16: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 16 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days.
