Title "mount RPC error on trsrtc2:/nfstest: Permission denided" error when mounting an NFS directory
Ref. No. QNX.000005681
Category(ies) Network, Configuration
Issue We are attempting to set up NFS between two TCP/IP networked machines.  Our machines can ping each other via either IP or hostname.

On the NFS server, we call 'nfsstart' before inetd runs as per the explanation in the "TCP/IP Utilities" manual.

On the NFS Server, we used the default nfsstart file.  From the client machine, we tried the following command:

    mount_nfs trsrtc2:/nfstest /nfs

and got the response:

    mount RPC error on trsrtc2:/nfstest: Permission denied






Solution The exports file must have all of the directories that are to be mounted.  If it only has '/' in it then only / may be mounted.
