NFS client unable to connect #40

Closed xttjsn closed 4 years ago

xttjsn commented 4 years ago

This might be a noob question, but I have two VMs running in the same bridged network. I configured VM1 as the NFS server:

$ sudo docker run \
-v /nfsroot:/nfsroot \
-v /etc/exports:/etc/exports:ro \
--cap-add SYS_ADMIN \
-p 2049:2049 \
--security-opt apparmor=erichough-nfs \

Here's VM1's network status:

ip addr show
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
    inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo

    inet6 ::1/128 scope host 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
2: ens33: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UP group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:0c:29:76:8b:0e brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

       valid_lft 594618sec preferred_lft 594618sec
...

VM2 will be using the interface ens33 at 10.0.0.94.

When I connect to the server using VM2, I get:

sudo mount 10.0.0.94:/nfsroot /mnt/shared_client
mount.nfs: requested NFS version or transport protocol is not supported

Some more verbose output:

$ sudo mount -v -t nfs -o vers=3,nfsvers=3 10.0.0.94:/nfsroot /mnt/shared_client

Strangely, when I set up VM1's server by systemctl start nfs-kernel-server in the same network setup, VM2 CAN connect to the server without issue.

Am I missing anything?

It turns out that I only have to change /shared to / when doing mount:

sudo mount -v -t nfs -o vers=4,nfsvers=4 10.0.0.94:/ /mnt/shared_client      
mount.nfs: timeout set for Sun Mar  8 18:18:33 2020
mount.nfs: trying text-based options 'vers=4,addr=10.0.0.94,clientaddr=192.168.117.129'

Glad that you got it worked out and thank you for sharing your solution; hopefully it will help others.

NFSv4 uses a "pseudo filesystem" that causes widespread confusion wrt mount points. It's counter intuitive at best.
