NFS Server not working

Hi, I wanted to mount my WL-HDD (Latest Oleg) with my dBox but it didn't work. So I started up my knoppix and tried, but again no response. I always get RPC Timed Out.
In another thread I read that NFS mounting only works with Gateway Mode, but this didn't work for me, so I switched back to Access Point Mode because I want to use my WL-HDD as a brigde.

I also made a tcpdump with my knoppix during a mount (Knoppix = 192.168.0.6, WLHDD = 0.7)

Code:

I use this command for mounting on Knoppix and dbox:

Code:

root@1[knoppix]# mount -t nfs 192.168.0.7:/tmp/harddisk/filme /mnt mount: RPC: Wartezeit abgelaufen (Timed out)

Do you've portmap running on the knoppix system?
NFS should work fine in the AP mode too. Also, check that

Code:

nslookup 192.168.0.6

works on the wl500g - no timeouts, etc.

nslookup gives me after some time:

Code:

[admin@wl-hdd root]$ nslookup 192.168.0.6 *** Unknown host *** Unknown host

portmap is running on knoppix, but it doesn't work on the dbox either...

After reseting to factory defaults, it is working now.
Strange...

Thanks for your help!

JOCKYW's NFS with r/wsize > 8192?

Hi,

i use the WL-HDD together with my DBOX2 for streaming video.
Therefore i set up the WL-HDD like described at http://wiki.tuxbox.org/NAS:ASUS_WL-HDD except, that i only use
the NFS server part (the parts '# start FTP daemon' and '# start Samba 3.0.9 daemon' are completely commented out).
Everything works fine as i expected with one little exception:
if i mount the NFS directory on the WL-HDD from my DBOX2, the WL-HDD seems to refuse rsize and wsize greater than 8192.
Is there a version of the NFS available supporting these sizes greater than 8192? If yes, which files has to be replaced?

Thanks in advance...

NFS not working anymore after subnet changed

Hi everyone who reads this!

I have an Yakumumo aka Asus WL-HDD with Olegs Firmware on it running as a DHCP client in AP Mode, it only has one IP and though it gets the IP via DHCP it is always the same IP.

I had Samba and NFS running fine on this little bugger, until i changed from a Fritz!Box router to a DLINK router.

The Subnet has changed: Was 192.186.178.* and now is 192.168.0.* , so i changed the clients IP in the NFS exports. But since i am running the new network, i could not mount the NFS share once. It worked nicely and mounted much quicker than smb before i changed routers.

Also, when i connect via telnet the time to login has become much longer.

smb, ftp, ssh and twonkymedia still work, only nfs is not present anymore.

I don’t know too much about NFS so i did some searching and tried the following:

Code:

Claudia:~ jottzeh$ showmount -e 192.168.0.150 RPC: Timed out: Can't do Exports rpc

Claudia is the Mac running 10.4.9 Tiger and 192.168.0.150 is the WL-HDD.

and

Code:

[admin@Nirvana root]$ showmount -e mount clntudp_create: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Timed out

Nirvana is the WL-HDD.

and:

Code:

[admin@Nirvana root]$ showmount -e 192.168.0.150 rpc mount export: RPC: Timed out

or

Code:

[admin@Nirvana root]$ showmount -e 127.0.0.1 rpc mount export: RPC: Timed out

I have searched every config-file and etc-directory i could find on the Asus, but there is nothing that is related to the old subnet.

So what can i do? Do i need to configure RPC? I can’t remeber having done that the first time it worked. I can’t find WL-HDD related information about RCP either.

I have tried tons of options to do the export, but non worked.

Code:

/opt/Nirvana *(rw,insecure,all_squash,sync,anonuid=0) /opt/Nirvana 192.168.0.166(rw,insecure,no_squash,sync,anonuid=0) /opt/privat 192.168.0.166(rw,async,no_root_squash) etc etc

So what could be wrong or what could i do to check what is wrong?

Regards,
Winne2.

Same problem here.

I have wl-hdd and I was installed stuff on it (flash with wl500g-clear-nvram.trx then with WLHDD-1.9.2.7-7g.trx) at work (net 192.168.0.0/24).
I did not have a chance to test nfs at work but everithing else was ok (ssh, enhanced-ctorrent + sctcs, ftp ...).
At home i have 192.168.13.0/24 subnet and nfs is not working (I'm trying to mount from dreambox dm500).
The export is:/opt/dream *(rw,async,no_root_squash)

I have discovered one thing:
For nfs mounting to work, portmap must be started on the NFS client.
If you don't start it (or if you can not start it because it is not there - like in dreambox dm500) mounting will hung for few minutes or more.
NFS without portmap can be done using nolock option (mount -o nolock ....)
It works with busybox as well. ;)
I have not test it yet at home (it works with wl-hdd and linux client without portmap started) but I will do that this evening.
In some cases the mount thing may work if you have a line in your /etc/hosts file for each computer/device involved.
Btw, in this file it is one record 192.168.1.1 that is wrong and remain there even if the wl-hdd IP is in other subnet!!!
