- Now, for something related:
-
- After ifconfig'ing ec0 and successfully ftp'ing/ping'ing a host on our net,
- I am having problems trying to access an NFS server. The NFS server is a
- netware 3.11 box with Netware NFS v1.1. I can get the server volume to mount
- on the 386bsd filesystem and running df gives an accurate report of the space
- available, but I am unable to do anything in the directory where the NFS
- volume is mounted. Trying to do an ls or cp'ing something into that directory
- just gives me a permission denied error. Doing an ls -l of the mount
- directory after I've mounted the volume shows the privledges as being:
-
- drwx------ 4 root 512 Sep 9 16:30 mcet1/
-
- It would seem as if I had the proper privledges, right? Last, if I explicitly
- try to mount the NFS volume by hand with the command line:
-
- # mount /bsd386/@mcet1: /mcet1 (I know, I know, it should be /386bsd/ :-) )
-
- I get a message that reads "Can't get net id for host". I can't figure out if
- I've got something set up incorrectly on the Netware NFS hosts's side or if
- the problem is somewhere in how I've configured the 386bsd system. Anyone
- want to offer any suggestions?
