In trying to fix this, I've since run "service iptables stop"
on both
boxes to shut down the firewalls. Then I was able to mount the shared
directory on the client without problems. I started iptables again and
can still see the shared directory on the client.
I don't see anything in either that stands out as wrong, both
machines are
plugged into the "LAN" ports of the router?
yes
Try "arp -a" on both the client and server, and see what returns.
Here's the server:
magnusg@PuteF Mon Mar 24 12:04:28
[270] ~ $ arp -a
PuteB.SMAssociates.com (192.168.1.13) at 00:13:20:8C:8D:D2 [ether] on
eth0
...and the client:
magnusg@PuteB Mon Mar 24 12:11:05
[583] /mnt/PuteF $ arp -a
PuteF.SMAssociates.com (192.168.1.14) at 00:16:76:C2:73:01 [ether] on
eth0
? (192.168.1.1) at 00:06:25:09:6C:22 [ether] on eth0
If the arp command does not show the other machine, try pinging the
other
machine and rerun the "arp -a".
"arp -a" on the server shows
the client, while "arp -a" on the client
shows the server.
And can you both ping and ssh both directions? client -> server
and server ->
client?
yes, both ping and ssh work fine. Is there some other port I need to
open to get this to work?
