Thanks for all the replies. Casper hit it on the head.

The answer:

Probably need to use the fully qualified domainname.

Once I did the following on the server I was able to mount the nfs shared

directory.

# exportfs -i -o ro,access=client.domain.com /local/bin/dir

The original question:

I am trying to mount a exported file system from a 4.1.3u1 system to a 2.6

>system with some security. If I do the following on the server:

>#exportfs -i -a -o ro /local/bin/dir

>I can mount it and read it, but I get a warning like:

>#mount -F nfs server:/local/bin/dir /local/bin/dir

>WARNING: No network locking on server:/local/bin/dir: contact admin to install

>server change

This means you need to install the latest NFS and lockd patches on the

4.1.3u1 server,
