NFS share:

[rufus_corp]

Hello,

On a freshly install of Proxmox V2.1.1 , i try to share a folder with NFS. I've installed nfs-kernel-server package, then i put :

/truc   *(rw,sync,no_subtree_check)

in /etc/exports

My nfs server start normaly in appearance, but in fact I got this in /var/log/syslog:

Jun 22 17:13:51 virtuel2 mountd[2331]: Caught signal 15, un-registering and exiting.
Jun 22 17:13:52 virtuel2 kernel: svc: failed to register lockdv1 RPC service (errno 97).

The problème is when i mount (on another debian squeeze) box my nfs share (mount 192.168.2.2:/truc /mnt/custom), the share mount
but the uid and gid are not mapped. I can see this on /mnt/custom:

-rw-r--r-- 1 4294967294 4294967294 0 Jun 19 19:24 coucou
-rw-r--r-- 1 4294967294 4294967294 0 Jun 19 19:24 toutou

When i mount the share using nfs v3 (mount -o nfsvers=3 192.168.2.2:/truc /mnt/custom)

-rw-r--r-- 1 root   root 0 Jun 19 19:24 /mnt/custom/coucou
-rw-r--r-- 1 daemon root 0 Jun 19 19:24 /mnt/custom/toutou

the mapping is ok, but the share access is very very very very long !!!!

the problèm doesn't occur, when i mount the share on proxmox itself


after googling a lot, i'm stuck :-( help?

no idea?

the NFS method is not a good way to share data between host and guest? what can i use in place of NFS (which is able to map SID and GID) ?

I found the solution;

the probleme occured only when the client is debian squeeze (i try with ubuntu 12.04, and it is ok), so it's a client's problem

On the client :
/etc/init.d/nfs-common stop

edit /etc/default/nfs-common
and modifiy:
NEED_STATD="no"
and:
NEED_IDMAPD="yes"

after that, when starting nfs-common, you should see:
Starting NFS common utilities: idmapd
rather than:
Starting NFS common utilities: statd.


i hope that help
