One last change made it work! I added rpcbind: 192.168.47., LOCAL to my server's /etc/hosts.allow. (See below updated files).
This is the F7 server serving the directories... [bobh@north ~]# uname -a Linux north.rosestar.lan 2.6.23.1-10.fc7 #1 SMP Fri Oct 19 15:39:08 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux [bobh@north ~]# rpm -q rpcbind nfs-utils rpcbind-0.1.4-8.fc7 nfs-utils-1.1.0-4.fc7 [bobh@north ~]# cat /etc/hosts.* # # hosts.allow This file describes the names of the hosts which are # allowed to use the local INET services, as decided # by the '/usr/sbin/tcpd' server. # portmap: 192.168.47., LOCAL mountd: 192.168.47., LOCAL rquotad: 192.168.47., LOCAL lockd: 192.168.47., LOCAL statd: 192.168.47., LOCAL rpcbind: 192.168.47., LOCAL # -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ipop3d: 192.168.47., LOCAL sshd: 192.168.47., LOCAL # -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ALL: 127.0.0., localhost
# # hosts.deny This file describes the names of the hosts which are # *not* allowed to use the local INET services, as decided # by the '/usr/sbin/tcpd' server. # # The portmap line is redundant, but it is left to remind you that # the new secure portmap uses hosts.deny and hosts.allow. In particular # you should know that NFS uses portmap! ALL: ALL
This is the F6 workstation trying to mount a directory... [bobh@south ~]$ uname -a Linux south.rosestar.lan 2.6.22.9-61.fc6 #1 SMP Thu Sep 27 18:48:03 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux [bobh@south ~]$ rpm -q rpcbind nfs-utils package rpcbind is not installed nfs-utils-1.0.10-14.fc6 [bobh@south ~]$ cat /etc/hosts.* # # hosts.allow This file describes the names of the hosts which are # allowed to use the local INET services, as decided # by the '/usr/sbin/tcpd' server. # # ------------------------------------------------------------------ lockd: 192.168.47., LOCAL mountd: 192.168.47., LOCAL portmap: 192.168.47., LOCAL rquotad: 192.168.47., LOCAL statd: 192.168.47., LOCAL # ------------------------------------------------------------------ ALL: 127.0.0., localhost
# # hosts.deny This file describes the names of the hosts which are # *not* allowed to use the local INET services, as decided # by the '/usr/sbin/tcpd' server. # # The portmap line is redundant, but it is left to remind you that # the new secure portmap uses hosts.deny and hosts.allow.

[bobh@south ~]$ sudo mount /mnt/north/home/; echo $? 0
Now it works!! Thanks for your assistance and patience. this posting is for the archive. Thanks, BobH
