Description ajacoutot 2002-10-22 02:20:44 UTC

Hi,

When starting nfs server with nfs init script (from nfs-utils), I get the
following message:

/etc/init.d/nfs start                                                          
                                                                               [
ok ] * Starting NFS statd...                                                   
                                                                               
       [ ok ] * Starting NFS rquotad...                                        
                                                                               
                [ ok ] * Starting NFS daemon...
nfssvc: Permission denied
 * Error starting NFS daemon                                                   
                                                                               
   [ !! ]
 * Starting NFS mountd...

The modules are correctly loaded:
nfsd                   61136   0  (autoclean)
lockd                  44080   0  (autoclean) [nfsd]
sunrpc                 60796   0  (autoclean) [nfsd lockd]

This error is happening on all my Gentoo servers, whether the nfs is user-space
or kernel-space.

have u emerged the latest version of nfs-utils, and do u have portmap running
and up before starting nfs?

Comment 2 ajacoutot 2002-10-24 18:14:12 UTC

Yes, portmap is running and I have nfs-utils-0.3.3-r1.

Comment 3 ajacoutot 2002-11-18 02:13:04 UTC

I saw the bug status changed, is it resolved ? 
Because I still get this "nfssvc: Permission denied" on NFS startup. 
Thanks for helping out.
