Reverted back to the Fedora Core 1 RPM and all works as before. Clients
can now mount NFS exports.
1. rpm -e nfs-utils
2. Get nfs-utils-1.0.6-1.i386.rpm from a Fedora Core 1 repository
3. rpm -Uvh nfs-utils-1.0.6-1.i386.rpm
4. service nfs start
Anybody had success with the Fedora Core 2 version (nfs-utils
1.0.6-20.i386) ? Obviously I am missing something with the
authentication because the clients get the following error.
mount: 1.1.1.1:/var/nfsmount failed, reason given by server: Permission
denied
