trying to setup a nfs.

i am using yast2. i do both server on one and client on two. i stop all firewalls. till can’t find the server. suse 13.2 wireless router.

Well, you do not say what goes wrong, but I assume that something does not work as you though it would work. Why did you come to the conclusion that “it does not work”? Please provide more information. Any error messages, etc.?

How can we see what you have when you do not post your configurations?

On the server:

cat /etc/exports

And when you export soomething, it must exist.

On the client

cat /etc/fstab | grep nfs

And of course your mount point must exist.

Is the NFS server running?

su - -c 'netstat -tlp'

only error i get is no server when i try to connect on the nclient side.

gary@linux-26r4:~> cat /etc/exports
/home *(fsid=0,crossmnt,ro,root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check)
gary@linux-26r4:~> su - -c ‘netstat -tlp’

Please, first a forum’s technical thing. When you post computer text by copy/paste from a terminal windfow into a post, do so between CODE tags. You get the code tags by clicking on the # button in the tool bar above the post editor.

Then please, do not say only “only error i get is no server when i try to connect on the nclient side.”, but tell what you do. Never assume that other people (like we here) do things the same thing as you do them and that it is thus obvious what you do. We can not know and maybe we do things different from you. So maybe you tried to mount the remote fs, thus we want o se the mopunt statement ad all that follows it until the next prompt.

And I am still missing from the client side the

cat /etc/fstab | grep nfs

I asked for. And please also add from the client:

su - -c 'netstat -tlp'
