I have setup a CentOS6.3 x86_64 host to act as a nfs server. According to RHEL6 docs, portmap is not needed when you use NFSv4, but in my host I need to start rpcbind service to make NFSv4 works.
I wasn't previously aware of that, but I just stopped rpcbind on both my CentOS 6 server and Fedora 17 workstation, and was able to mount /home by NFS.
Is your client mounting NFS4 by default, or configured to do so correctly?
Yes, all clients are configured to tuse nfsv4. Strange, if rpcbind process is stopped after nfs services are up, all works, but if rpcbind is stopped, nfs services doesn't go up ... I don't understand why rpcbind service needs to be up to start nfs services with you use nfsv4 only ...
