(This is still too brief)
NFS Configuration
- You need an /etc/exports to tell what should be exported
- Need to edit the /etc/sysconfig/nfs file to pin the ports (see iptables)
- Need to set "nfs" and "nfslock" to start automatically for runlevels 3,5
To check what ports NFS is using issue an
rpcinfo -p localhost
A full restart of the nfs related system
service portmap restart service nfs restart service rpcsvcgssd restart
Issues
Occasionally, issues crop up due to network-mounted home directories. Some applications, like firefox, don't behave properly. It seems to strike everyone at once when it does, and the solution so far has been to restart the nfs service. CIS has related issues with their CIFS-based home directories.
