NFS server strangness.



Hi,
I have two boxes running Solaris 10 that I have inherited and after a reboot
at the weekend on of the boxes will no longer allow nfs v3 or v2 to mount
it's shares.

One of the boxes if fine and allows older clients to access using any
version and the other will only allow connections when they are made by a
nfsv4 aware client like a opensolaris or solaris 10 box.

Even trying a mount -f nfs -o vers=3 fails from a solaris client. !?
So all of my older production boxes will not work either.

The output of rpcinfo -T host nfs,rpcbind and mount are identical on both
machines as are /etc/default/nfs /etc/system and /var/run/nfs4_domain .

I have done a truss on the affected server and it immediatly replies with
permission denied to the clients.

I am by no means a nfs guru so I was wondering if there were any pointers on
where to continue my search for a solution.

Thanks in advance.
Martin P
