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.

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
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?
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
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.
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.
Sorry, but FC2 is unsupported. It's maintained by The Fedora Legacy Project only.
Closing. Please, update to FC4.
You mean that it works under FC4?
