Description Mike Hanafey 2008-05-17 23:23:36 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.14) Gecko/20080404 Firefox/2.0.0.14

Description of problem:
I can reliably mount Solaris 8 NFS exports from two hosts that have only one NIC. However, for a Solaris 8 host that has 6 NICs configured for IP multipathing, NFS mounts fail. The mount request simply hangs, and after a few minutes the message "internal error" is printed. A RHEL 5.1 system is able to mount the same filesystem without problems.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. mount dna:/export/xyx /mtn



Actual Results:
Hangs, never mounts.

Expected Results:

Comment 1 Mike Hanafey 2008-05-19 17:35:56 UTC
This problem is caused by the following iptables entry:

-A INPUT -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited

This iptables rule was in effect despite the fact that the firewall was disabled
via the GUI. The problems goes away if the iptables service is stopped, and when
the above rule is removed (it apparently gets added by default during install).
