Hi,

when I tried to start nfs service, it threw out the following error
messages.

/etc/init.d/nfs start
Starting NFS services: [ OK ]
Starting NFS quotas: Cannot register service: RPC: Unable to receive;
errno = Connection refused
rpc.rquotad: unable to register (RQUOTAPROG, RQUOTAVERS, udp).
[FAILED]


Will anyone please tell me what the exact problem is and how it could be
fixed.

with regards...

start portmap service before starting nfs.
This should solve the problem.

it looks very much like the messages i get when one of my nis domain members
has lost connection to the nis server and then tries to mount. do you use
nis?

Do you mean that the portmap doesn't start, or that it does start but
doesn't fix the NFS problem?

To check if portmap is running, you can check for the process:

zebra $ ps -ef | grep portmap
rpc 738 1 0 Oct16 ? 00:00:00 portmap
zebra $

Assuming portmap is running, check that rpc works:

zebra $ /usr/sbin/rpcinfo -p localhost
program vers proto port
100000 2 tcp 111 rpcbind
100000 2 udp 111 rpcbind
100024 1 udp 32768 status
100024 1 tcp 32768 status
100007 2 udp 657 ypbind
100007 1 udp 657 ypbind
100007 2 tcp 660 ypbind
100007 1 tcp 660 ypbind
391002 2 tcp 32769 sgi_fam
300019 1 tcp 764 amd
300019 1 udp 765 amd
100021 1 udp 32770 nlockmgr
100021 3 udp 32770 nlockmgr
100021 4 udp 32770 nlockmgr
zebra $

If that is working, then NFS should start up ok.

You need to have the portmapper working before you try NFS.

"man portmapper" might be a good place to start - if you are having
problems, you probably want to look at using -v to see what's going on.

Paul.

HI

I checked rpc, it doesn't work, but portmap is running. When I tried to
ran rpcinfo it gave me the following error...

rpcinfo: can't contact portmapper: RPC: Remote system error - Connection
refused.

How to fix it.

with regards...

To be sure, if portmap is running or not.

service portmap restart

lsof | grep "portmap"

rpcinfo -p localhost <- try this if you find portmap running in lsof output.

I'm no real expert on this, but it sounds like you might possibly have a
TCP_Wrappers problem. Since you haven't mentioned what version of linux,
kernel, or NFS you are using, I'm just guessing here.

TCP_Wrappers might be installed and it might also be linked into the
nfs-utils.

Check for TCP_Wrappers like this:

rpm -q tcp_wrappers

and check for nfs-utils version like this:

rpm -q nfs-utils

Finally, double check TCP Wrapper support like this:

strings /usr/sbin/rpc.mountd | grep hosts

and look for something like this :

/etc/hosts.allow
/etc/hosts.deny

If you get that, then wrappers are being used so you have to configure
them right. If they are not configured right, they will cause the
connection refused error you are getting.

Try 'man hosts.allow' and 'man hosts.allow' for more info.

Hope this helps give you a handle on where to look.

P.
