REPOST: please help: nfssvc: Permission denied

[ajacoutot]

Hi, I'm sorry to repost this, but I really can't find the answer to this.
I'm having the following error on ALL my Gentoo servers:

When starting nfs server with nfs init script (from nfs-utils), I get the
following message:

/etc/init.d/nfs start

[ok ] * Starting NFS statd...

[ ok ] * Starting NFS rquotad...

[ ok ] * Starting NFS daemon...
nfssvc: Permission denied
* Error starting NFS daemon

[ !! ]
* Starting NFS mountd...

The modules are correctly loaded:
nfsd 61136 0 (autoclean)
lockd 44080 0 (autoclean) [nfsd]
sunrpc 60796 0 (autoclean) [nfsd lockd]

This error is happening on all my Gentoo servers, whether the nfs is user-space
or kernel-space.

There's nothing in the logs except someting about the portmapper (in auth.log):
Oct 7 07:03:09 srv01 portmap[29402]: connect from 127.0.0.1 to set(nfs):
request from unprivileged port
Oct 7 07:03:09 srv01 portmap[21158]: connect from 127.0.0.1 to unset(nfs):
request from unprivileged port
Oct 7 07:04:40 srv01 portmap[1765]: connect from 127.0.0.1 to set(nfs): request
from unprivileged port

Portmap is running and I have nfs-utils-0.3.3-r1.

If you have any idea, please help.
Thanks in advance.

Antoine
