netfs hangs
Am setting up several new rhel6 systems. Systems "A" is a nfs server. System "b" is client.
Have exported lots but never run into this problem. Exportfs is clean - no error in exports.
On client, cannot get connectio. Get no error messages, nothing. Manually ran "service netfs restart" and it hangs, eventually terminaging with the error "Mounting NFS filesystems: mount.nfs: connection timed out.". Thought maybe hosts.allow, and added to each client and server side "portmap, mountd: 172.16.132. " No difference. Verified the IP addresses of both servers in hostfile (intentionally static).
Any ideas?
