Hello when I try to start nfs the command hangs. I have found out, that the problem is, that I set an IP address at /etc/exports sample: /var/foo XXX.XXX.XXX(some rights) when replace the IP address to * then service nfs start work, but no one can use the exports. What goes wrong??
You might want to make sure that the portmap daemon is running.
/etc/init.d/portmap status
will tell you if it is runnning. If it is not..fire it up.
