I have been trying to mount NFS share from Suse in ClearOS, but I get connection timed out. I can go to another Suse machine and mount without issue.
Now the really difficult aspect of this problem: I decided to use 2 different OpenSuse 13.2 VMs, setup NFS server, and then tried mount on ClearOS.
Only difference between working and non-working is that the OS for one has not been updated, but the NFS server is identical. What could cause one to work, and another to fail? Yes, of course I did check see if firewall was issue.
| Working | Not-Working | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| OpenSuse 13.2.20150224 | OpenSuse 13.2.20150107 | ||||||||
| NFS version = 1.3.0-4.2.1 | NFS version = 1.3.0-4.2.1 | ||||||||
| exports | exports | ||||||||
| / | 192.168.2.0/24(ro,root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check) | / | 192.168.2.0/24(ro,root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check) |
Again I have no problem mounting a Suse NFS share on another Suse, just when I tried on the exact ClearOS server I have issue with. Here in VM I can get one to mount and one not on another ClearOS test VM. Always “mount.nfs: Connection timed out” when it fails, no other reason or message.
