Thanks to all who replied to my "Two disks on a Sun 3/60 query.
Now can anyone please help with the following?
I have NetBSD 1.3.2 running on a Sun 3/60 and I want to mount some file systems
from my PII laptop running RH 5.2.
I carried out the following procedure without success.
1. placed the file systems I wish to export in the /etc/exports file on the
linux box (PC453)
/usr/local/sun3
/mnt/cdrom
2. placed the following entries in the /etc/fstab file on the NetBSD box.
PC453:/usr/local/sun3 /mnt/sun3 nfs ro 0 0
PC453:/mnt/cdrom /mnt/cdrom nfs ro 0 0
This sun3 fails to mount the file systems at boot time.
The following command also fails
mount -t nfs PC453:/usr/local/sun3 /mnt/sun3
with the error message
portmap: RPC program not registered.
I believe this to be a problem on the linux box as I have successfuly mounted
file systems from SunOS and Solaris machines on the same NetBSD box. I have not
had a good response from the RH Linux lists so I thought I might try here in
case anybody has had a similar experience.
thanks to any respondents
