From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.2.1) Gecko/20010901 Description of problem: Since installing all the latest RH7.2 updates nfs-utils seems to be broken! When booted the nfs server will not operate correctly, but gives the above message. If I do /sbin/service nfs stop and then start, then it's fine! nfs-utils-0.3.1-13.7.2.1 Here is my exports: /usr *.hns.com(rw,async) *.adg.labs.md.hnsnet(rw,async) /disk1 *.hns.com(rw,async) *.adg.labs.md.hnsnet(rw,async) /var/ftp/pub *(ro) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.boot 2. 3. Additional info:
This is interesting! Notice that the first time, when it failed I see: Mar 14 09:21:13 rpppc1 rpc.mountd: authenticated mount request from 10.84.192.253:661 for /disk1/nbecker (/disk1) Mar 14 09:21:13 rpppc1 rpc.mountd: getfh failed: Operation not permitted See the message gives the IP. Now the second time, when it mounted OK: Mar 14 09:22:49 rpppc1 rpc.mountd: authenticated mount request from rpppc2.adg.labs.md.hnsnet:664 for /disk1/nbecker (/disk1) I wonder if that is significant?
Should be fixed in the next release. Can you pull the latest nfs-utils out of rawhide and confirm that it is fixed? ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/i386/RedHat/RPMS/nfs-utils-0.3.3-2.i386.rpm
As of 0.3.3-5 on 7.3, bug still exists. I deleted the shared directory then remade it, perhaps that caused the problem? Hack solution of stopping and starting resolved problem.
