NFS firewall configuration[solved]

I'm trying to configure my NFS server to use static ports

I have the following entry in /etc/conf.d/nfs:
OPTS_RPC_MOUNTD="-p 32767"

but:
pc ~ # rpcinfo -p | grep udp.*mountd
100005 1 udp 33268 mountd
100005 2 udp 37470 mountd
100005 3 udp 47579 mountd

thanks

It is uncommon to setup a firewall for NFS.

Close enough. It seems this is what you're looking for:

nope that did not work
I did notice in the systemd script:
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/rpc.mountd $RPCMOUNTDOPTS

EnvironmentFile=/etc/conf.d/nfs

so I changed that to:
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/rpc.mountd $OPTS_RPC_MOUNTD

worked like a charm

Quite funny. They should either both work or both fail.
After expanding variables you get exactly the same command line. If one worked and the other didn't, you had to either make some typo or define the variable in wrong place.

I don't remember exactly, but I probably had copied that service script of some website, I probably just copide and didn't check
