But it still doesn't work. I added an entry for rpc.mountd in the /etc/inetd.conf of the remote host. I also added an entry for the filesystem to be exported in the remote host's /etc/exports directory. I also verified that nfsd and rpc.mountd were up and running after restarting inetd. (i restarted by first killing /etc/inetd -k, and then again /etc/inetd). /etc/portmap is up and running too! Now when I try to mount the directory on the remote host, by typing: /etc/mount host1:/users/manoj /users/manoj/nfs_test I get a new error: mount: access denied for host1:/users/manoj The host1's /etc/exports file has the entry /users/manoj (which I presume should be enough for this example) The host1's /etc/inetd.conf has the entry rpc dgram udp wait root /usr/etc/rpc.mountd 100005 1 rpc.mountd Since I restarted the inetd without rebooting the system, is there something else that should have got updated?
