 Posted: Tue Jul 12, 2005 10:41 am Post subject: NFS Authentication |
 |
|
Hey All,
I am trying to NFS mount some directories on my Gentoo Linux box on my new Powerbook.
I have installed nfs-utils and setup /exports to be as follows:
| Code: |
# /etc/exports: NFS file systems being exported. See exports(5).
/media *(rw,sync,root_squash,insecure)
|
I have also altered the UID and GID for my user on the Powerbook so that they match the UID and GID on the linux box. When I try to connect from the powerbook it tells me that it was unable to authenticate. In /var/log/messages I see the following:
| Code: |
Jul 12 03:37:30 mithrandir rpc.mountd: authenticated mount request from 192.168.1.242:970 for /media (/media)
Jul 12 03:37:30 mithrandir svc: unknown version (3)
|
My guess is that the first mount request is understood but denied and then the Mac retries with NFS version 3 which isn't supported, but that's just a guess.
The password on the two systems is the same, though NFS doesn't seem to authenticate via PAM. Is there a way to PAMify or Kerberize NFS? (I use Kerberos for authentication via pam_krb5, but there is a password in /etc/shadow for the user I am trying to connect as that matches.)
Is there a way to get more authentication information logged in NFS on gentoo? This is the first time I am running NFS and google hasn't been very helpful yet. I'll keep searching though.
Thanks,
-Nick

Well, the wicki entry helped in that it sent me back into my kernel options. I noticed in there that there is a switch to turn on NFS v3 support. I turned that on and reinstalled and everything worked perfectly. It turns out the "svc: unknown version (3)" was telling me what I needed to do to fix the problem.
Thanks,
-Nick
