Re: How To Export NFS?


Hello

i think that's not the good way to run portmap nfsd and mountd directly
you should install them as windows services. there is a script with cygwin called nfs-server-config which will configure that for you: install the services and generate default config files, you will then be able to add what you want to /etc/exports and then restart the services with thoses commands:


to stop the services:
  cygrunsrv -E portmap
  cygrunsrv -E mountd
  cygrunsrv -E nfsd

to start the services:
  cygrunsrv -S portmap
  cygrunsrv -S mountd
  cygrunsrv -S nfsd

then i think it would have more chance to work

I'm trying to export an NFS filesystem under cygwin to
a Linux machine on the same network, but I get"
# mount -t nfs 10.0.0.1:/etc /mnt
mount: RPC: Timed out
"

There are no firewalls on either box.

My /etc/exports contains:
$ cat /etc/exports
/etc 10.0.0.0/255.255.255.0(ro)

I ran the following on the cygwin machine:
$ /usr/sbin/portmap.exe &
$ /usr/sbin/rpc.mountd.exe &
$ /usr/sbin/rpc.nfsd.exe

I can't find any reference to make this work.  If
anyone can forward something helpful, I would greatly
appreciate it.  If this is a FAQ, please point me in
the right directions because I can't find it...

As always, please send negative comments to /dev/null
:) .  Thanks!
