Hi all,
Which ports do I need to have open on an NFS client's firewall to allow it to connect to a remote NFS servers?
When I disable iptables (using ConfigServerFirewall), it connects fine, but as soon as I enable it, NFS gives me this error: root@saturn:[~]$ mount master1.mydomain.co.za:/saturn /bck mount: mount to NFS server 'master1.mydomain.co.za' failed: RPC Error: Unable to send.
I have added ports 111 & 2049 in both the TCP & UDP ingres & exgress ranges, but that doesn't seem to help. portmap & nfs is running as well. But as I say, as soon as I disable the firewall, it mounts fine.
Google search results reveal a lot of different ports, like 4000:4004, 83xxxx (something, I forgot) but it still doesn't help.
