Today I installed FreeNas 9.2.1.8 and now I am trying to set up a NFS.
First I created a Volume with the volume manager. Then I created a dataset.
Now I want to set up a NFS for this dataset.
So I go to share, add UNIX(NFS) share, as mount point I select the path of my created dataset.
As mapalluser and mapallgroup I select nouser and nogroup scince I changed the permission of the dataset to it.
As a final step I have gone to services and switchen on NFS.
When I now try to mount the nfs on Ubuntu 13.10 with
sudo mount -t nfs 192.168.1.5:/mnt/Storage/NFS /home/tm/freenas/
It says mount.nfs Connection timed out
On the FreeNAS i got an message: rpcb_unset failed.
Does someone know what the problem here is?
Ok I solved the problem appearently I had to add my client to the host name database of my freenas server. The Setting can be found at Network Settings-> Global Configuration
And then I add it like:
192.168.1.4 clientmachinename

I am trying to do an NFS mount using CHEF. I have mounted it successfully. Please find the below code.
# Execute mount
node['chef_book']['mount_path'].each do |path_name|
mount "/#{path_name['local']}" do
device "10.34.56.1:/data"
fstype 'nfs'
options 'rw'
retries 3
retry_delay 30
action %i[mount enable]
end
end
i am able to successfully mount and make an entry in fstab file. But, after mounting the user:group for the mount linked is changing to root:root , which i was not expecting.
i want to use myuser:mygroup as owner:group. I tried changing the same using chown command but am getting permission denied issue
request some guidance
As mentioned in the comment, this is not something Chef controls per se. After the mount, the folder will be owned by whatever the NFS server says. You can try to chmod the folder after mounting but that's up to your NFS configuration and whatnot as to if it will be allowed.
I am trying to setup a file/DLNA server on raspberry pi (raspbian wheezy) for the files to be shared by all the devices I use - android and Linux to the minimum.
I have a USB drive with some decent storage where I have all my files. So far, I had NFS and dlna serving the USB drive contents.
Recently, I installed owncloud. It required the owncloud data directory to be owned by www-data. I have mounted (from fstab) the USB drive with options rw,user,uid=33,gid=33,mask=007. The owncloud worked fine (though it is very slow to render the contents).
My nfs exports is as follows:
/owncloud_data/mystuff *(rw,all_squash,anonuid=33,anongid=33,no_subtree_check)
My shomount -e localhost displays the following:
Export list for localhost:
/owncloud_data/mystuff (everyone)
However, when I issue
sudo mount localhost:/owncloud_data/mystuff /my_nfs
I get the following error:
mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting localhost:/owncloud_data/mystuff
I don't understand why. I kind of guess that this is because the /owncloud_data/mystuff is owned by the www-data. But, the nfs-server is run as root; should it not be able to read the data? Or am I missing anything in this regard? I dont get any useful logs in the /var/log/messages; I tried including the --debug all option in the nfs config.
I haven't started with the dlna yet (I have installed minidlna which was working with NFS before I installed the owncloud).
OR, is there a better solution for what I am trying to do?
Please let me know if you need more information in this regard.
Thanks
I wont tick this as an answer. It is a work around.
The problem is if I export the /owncloud_data/mystuff the nfs mount is not working. If I export all /owncloud_data, it is working fine (along with the export options I have mentioned in the original post). I just mount /owncloud_data/mystuff on the client side (though technically I can mount /owncloud_data there).
I will be happy if anybody can explain this behaviour and solve to export /owncloud_data/mystuff.
Agenda: To have an common Project Folder between Linux and Windows
I have changed my document root from : /var/www/html to /media/mithun/Projects/test in my ubuntu machine 14.04
I get error as :
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) Server at localhost Port 80
So i added some scripts to : sudo gedit /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf
# DocumentRoot /var/www/html
DocumentRoot /media/mithun/Projects/test
But Document Root /var/www/test works but not with Windows NTFS Partition Drive.
Even after referring to :
Error message "Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server"
Issue with my Ubuntu Apache Conf file. (Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server.)
No success :( So kindly assist me with it...
Note: Projects is an New Volume (Internal Drive: In Windows its E:/ Drive)

After this, i was also able to restart apache successfully
maybe the problem is simple : is your new root directory accessible to the www-data user ?
Try :
$ chown -R www-data:www-data /media/mithun/Projects
As you have you have discovered by now, you cannot just manipulate permissions on an NTFS partition (using tools like chmod)
However, you can try forcing a given owner/permissions for the entire partition when you mount it.
Now the wayto do this, depends on the NTFS-utilities you are actually using (and which i don't know, so I'm assuming you are using ntfs-3g)
E.g. mount the partition with the following parameters (replace dev/sdX with your actual partition, and /path/to/wheredrive/is/mounted` with your target path):
mount -o gid=www-data /dev/sdX /path/where/the/drive/is/mounted
should make all the files on the partition belong to the www-data group.
If the filesystem sets the group ownership explicitely, this still might not work.
In this case, you might need to setup a usermap, that maps your windows users/groups (as found on the partition) to your linux users/groups.
The ntfs-3g.usermap utility will help you generate an initial usermap file, which you can then edit to your needs:
ntfs-3g.usermap /dev/sdX
Then pass the usermap to the mount options:
mount -o usermapping=/path/to/usermap.file /dev/sdX /path/where/the/drive/is/mounted
I suspect that you have apparmor enforcing rules that prevent Apache from reading non-whitelisted directory paths. I suggest that you
Edit the apparmor config for Apache to access your custom path. You'll need to hunt around /etc/apparmor.d/ . You may also find that using apparmor in non-enforcing mode helpful.
$ sudo aa-complain /etc/apparmor.d/*
Use mod_apparmor? See this
Or disable apparmor completely. See this
My order of preference would be 1,3,2. That should fix this for you :)
While using ubuntu with windows I faced same issue and it is resolved by remounting drive with read and write access. Below command will help you to do that:
sudo mount -o remount,rw /disk/location /disk/new_location
If it is still not working then in windows os, go to the power options and disable fast startup.
When you shut down a computer with Fast Startup enabled, Windows locks down the Windows hard disk. You won’t be able to access it from other operating systems if you have your computer configured to dual-boot. Even worse, if you boot into another OS and then access or change anything on the hard disk (or partition) that the hibernating Windows installation uses, it can cause corruption. If you’re dual booting, it’s best not to use Fast Startup or Hibernation at all.

I want to mount a folder which is on some other machine to my linux server. To do that i am using the following command
mount -t nfs 192.xxx.x.xx:/opt/oracle /
Which is executing with the following error
mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 192.xxx.x.xx:/opt/oracle
Do anyone knows what's going on ??? I am new to linux.
Depending on what distro you're using, you simply edit the /etc/exports file on the remote machine to export the directories you want, then start your NFS daemon.
Then on the local PC, you mount it using the following command:
mount -t nfs {remote_pc_address}:/remote/dir /some/local/dir
Please try with your home directory as per my knowledge you can't dump anything directly on root like that.

I am trying to mount a volume on a RHEL 6.4 virtual machine permanently.
My fstab entry is as:
172.17.4.228:/bp_nfs_test1 /mnt1 nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,intr
And I mounted the volume as:
mount 172.17.4.228:/bp_nfs_test1 /mnt1
When I run df -h I can see the volume and able to access it properly.
But when I reboot the VM, the mount is gone and not able to access it anymore even though the entry in /etc/fstab is present
I have to manually mount the volume again (mount -a), then only I am able to see my volume in df -h and access it.
Any help is appreciated
The mount process on boot is very early, so your network won't be online thus preventing the nfs share from being mounted. You'll need to enable netfs, which manages network file shares, and runs after the network is up. Your desired process is:
Standard mounts processed.
NFS share is skipped during initial mounts (by adding _netdev to options).
After network is online, netfs will process network file systems like nfs and bring them online.
To prevent automounter for attempting to mount your nfs share before the network services are available, add _netdev to your options:
172.17.4.228:/bp_nfs_test1 /mnt1 nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,intr,_netdev
Enable netfs:
chkconfig netfs on
Alternatively, you could also configure the share through the /etc/auto.master configuration and have it mount when the share is accessed.
