Does anyone know of any problems with NFS or Samba? I have shared files with both before so I don't think i am forgetting anything but neither one is working at all. I have even tried sharing my Public files on the network and i get no access. The services are running and the firewalls have the appropriate ports open. I did notice that my single nfs share multiplied into three somehow, with each one using part of the folder name. What's going on? I haven't used either in quite some time , has something changed? I can connect to microshit boxes no problem but nothing else.
Hopefully its just me having a duh sort of day,

Search through the mailing list archives for a thread called "NFS versus the firewall". That was a thread I started, about the same thing, where someone else gave addresses to a couple of websites with information about resolving it.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.

of course turning off the firewall does nothing to resolve the issue. I cannot transfer files of any kind from one computer to another. I have set SELinux to permissive but no luck.

You might want to give more specifics of what you're doing. "NFS/SAMBA shares" sounds rather like you're hoping to access one through the other, which has its problems. Sharing a shared resource doesn't always work.

I set up an NFS share and a samba share. Neither works and i don't see any reason they shouldn't. Everything is in place or so i think. I 'll figure it out sooner or later. Sharing files was no problem before but now no matter what i try i cannot access the shares. My samba share shows up on the network but when i access it , i get a message telling me it cannot find the folder and perhaps its been deleted. I can't think of what i might have forgotten to do, it seems like it should work and it doesn't. I can't share my public files either. They show up on the network but i don't get an error or anything, the folder simply does not open from a remote machine. I tried disabling the firewall but i still get nothing. Anyone got a checklist? I don't think fedora is broken(though that may be the case) i think i have screwed up but for the life of me i cannot figure out what it is. Checklist anyone?

Set up /etc/exports Start the nfs server Create a mount point on your client(s) Mount the share

Since I have F8 installations that work as both NFS client and server, I can assure you that it's not broken.

As above. Are you sure you have the correct permissions set in your /etc/exports file? What about /etc/hosts.deny and /etc/hosts.allow?

Hi
Just set up something similar myself in the last few weeks as part of a migration from xp client to fedora client network.
NFS: Presumably you've tried showmount -e to check that your server thinks it is exporting something in the first place?
SAMBA: have you tried smbclient from your server shell to check you can login to samba - again making sure that there is something there for your clients to connect to.
HTH
