Comments on Setting Up An NFS Server And Client On OpenSUSE 12.2

This guide explains how to set up an NFS server and an NFS client on OpenSUSE 12.2. NFS stands for Network File System; through NFS, a client can access (read, write) a remote share on an NFS server as if it was on the local hard disk.

In my case the client mount hang and did not respond.

I had to restart the nfsserver service after the export. 

"systemctl restart nfsserver"

 

Great tutorial helped a lot, thanks.

Thank you for this. It works also for Tumbleweed.

But, before I found your article, I messed up the networking on one machine, let's call it A.

Both A and B can ping each other.

A can read and write to the shared directory on B.

But when trying to mount the shared directory from A on B, it complains with:

mount.nfs: No route to host Do have any suggestions for how to solve this?
