Fedora Servers :: F12: NFS Client Crashing On Writes To Remote Share
Feb 20, 2010
I have Fedora installed on a netbook. I customarily mount several NFS shares on this machine, from both a desktop system running F11 and a small server running FreeBSD. On the server side the shares are write-enabled. On the server side the shares are write-enabled. In the past this has worked fine.
However since upgrading to F12, my configuration no longer works as before. Reading from the NFS shares is no problem, but as soon as I try to write to one, either in Nautilus or from any other program, including on the cmd line, all hell breaks lose. Nautilus crashes, and I am unable to remount the shares. Usually rebooting the client is the my only recourse.
There are no clues in dmesg on either the client or the server. In terminal trying to remount a "trashed" share I see this:
Code:
$ sudo mount -v venus:/media/disk8 /media./disk8
mount: no type was given - I'll assume nfs because of the colon
mount.nfs: timeout set for Sat Feb 20 17:34:59 2010
mount.nfs: prog 100003, trying vers=3, prot=6
[Code].....
The NFS versions under F11, F12, and FreeBSD are the current ones (all updates applied).

Setting of my NFS as following and I am failed to mount client and get connected the both computer using Fedora 11; server ~(tower) and client (note book)
NFS Server setting ...
root@tomcat shylock_1]# cat /etc/sysconfig/iptables
# Firewall configuration written by system-config-firewall
# Manual customization of this file is not recommended.
*filter .....
Please make note selinux demon has been disabled.
On Client Side:
file : /etc/exports EMPTY
file : /etc/hosts.allow EMPTY
file :/etc/hosts.deny EMPTY
[root@eagle shylock_1]# cat /etc/sysconfig/iptables
# Firewall configuration written by system-config-firewall
# Manual customization of this file is not recommended.
*filter .....
After making several attempt I cannot mount share on client. What I am missing here? OR is there problem with F11 with NFS server? While throwing everything including sink... I ran tcpdump on server while issuing mount command from client; I got following tcp dump.
01:14:57.142977 IP eagle.xxxxx.co.uk.38684 > tomcat.xxxx.co.uk.sunrpc: S 593790635:593790635(0) win 5840 <mss 1460,sackOK,timestamp 38407834 0,nop,wscale 6>
01:14:57.143033 IP tomcat.xxxxx.co.uk > eagle.xxxxx.co.uk: ICMP host tomcat.xxxxx.co.uk unreachable - admin prohibited, length 68
01:15:02.142293 arp who-has eagle.xxxxx.co.uk tell tomcat.xxxxx.co.uk
01:15:02.142431 arp reply eagle.xxxxx.co.uk is-at 00:10:a7:04:d0:0d (oui Unknown)
Which reflect that client (computer - eagle) trying to make call on Server - tomcat but failing. We have a router which also server DHCP Server and issue IP but server has static IPs.

I am back to the same issue internet connection sharing using NAT .I use the following command it work for me for an hours.
Code:
sudo iptables -A FORWARD -o eth0 -i eth1 -s 192.168.0.0/24 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW -j ACCEPT sudo iptables -A FORWARD -m conntrack --ctstate ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT sudo iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE
Code:
sudo iptables-save | sudo tee /etc/iptables.sav
Edit /etc/rc.local and add the following lines before the "exit 0" line:
Code:
iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.sav
Code:
sudo sh -c "echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward"
After restarting my server NAT is not working .client system can ping to my server through the server's eth1 ip but Internet is not accessible to the client pcs.

I am looking for a client/server application that can allow me to have remote GUI access (eg: VNC) but with the ability to use sound.
I see that TeamViewer has a linux application out now but for my company, it would compromise security protocol because it reaches out to the TeamViewer servers to do any work.
Basically, we have applications that require a GUI and we need to hear sounds from them if they throw an alert (the app is a monitoring tool).
We are running a VNC server on it currently and when our monitoring machine was on Windows, TightVNC was able to get the sound...that is not the case with any Linux client so I am wondering if there is actually one that exists.

I recently set up a Samba server (Ubuntu 8.10 desktop) in a Social Businness Office. in there have different laptops and OS.
Here is how my smb.conf file look in the share section.
[private folder]
path = /path/to/private
comment = private
valid users = user1 user2
directory mask = 0777
[Code]....
It work fine for Win and Ubuntu, but access this folder with Mac OsX gives this error:
smb_mount: open session failed!: syserr = Broken pipe
It seems that authentication is ok, but for some reason it cannot mount the device.
I know this is not the right place to talk about OsX issues.
I would like to exclude if there are some options I miss in the smb.conf.

I have a folder on my workstation and I currently have an identical copy on my nas mounted via ifs (I'll be using this as my backup). The folder contains many virtual machines that are usually powered off. I like to think of the copy on my nas as a backup. The benefit of having two copies of my vms is that if I boot up too many on my workstation and the drive starts to cause a bottle neck I can simply boot the vms from the nas instead. (gigabit ethernet)
I would like changes I make to my local copy to be reflected on the nas.
I want this to happen In the background, I.e. If I turn off my machine it shouldnt cause a problem, the next time I boot up it just re checks the files and continues syncing the 2 directories.
What is the best tool for the job? Rsync?
I've never really used it before so a few pointers to get me going would be great, or obviously other recommendations if there are any.

I'm trying to get a VB program to make a client connection to my PostgreSQL server running on an Ubuntu 10.10 server. Here's what I've done: Client side - installed and registered the OLE DB .dll's from the PostgreSQL OLE DB Provider project. server side - the configuration described here: [URL]... Have added this line to postgresql.conf:
listen_addresses = '*, 144.96.80.35, localhost'

also, port = 5432

I've just installed Ubuntu 9.10 and Samba 3.4. I've shared a folder and have accessed the share from a Windows 7 client. However, I've struggled to configure the share and folder so that the Win7 client can create files and/or folders in the share. Kept getting Permission Denied errors. Finally, (using Webmin) I set the permissions on the file folder so that "Other" had write access. I don't understand why this was necessary (and how unsecure this is). I already had the write access checkbox ticked for "User" but it wasn't enough.

I run a website that a very steady flow of traffic and Im seeing recent issues that I just dont like. Server is 10.04.2 on a supermicro i7-950/6gb RAM with two 500gb Samsung F3 drives in a software RAID1 (1x5400, 1x7200) and for several weeks, its been running very well. Recently, Im seeing the server hang for 5-20 seconds. IOwait goes through the roof, nothing can write to the disk. Apache logs stop, redis fails to rebuild caches, mysql errors and then it continues and moves back to normal operation
/ is ext4, the kernel was 2.6.32-server-x64 but since updating to 2.6.38-server-x64, the issue has dropped from maybe once per 10 minutes to once per 15 minutes. 3 IOstat copy/pastes show this when it hangs.
Code:
Total DISK READ: 0.00 B/s | Total DISK WRITE: 0.00 B/s
TID PRIO USER DISK READ DISK WRITE SWAPIN IO> COMMAND
[code]...
No smart errors or smart diags show any issues with any of the disks and kernel.log shows near nothing other than a process hang, 120 seconds about 5 days ago.

I have configured server ubuntu 11.04. Everything works fine, but there is a need for some clients to connect local hard drive. What should I do? How and what modules are added to the ltsp-image? How to register in the fstab on the client? Maybe I'm going the wrong way?

I had everything working okay, but suddenly I couldn't mount an NFS share from one specific machine to another specific machineIn detail, I have a server (machine 'S') with a share '/big' exported. All hosts on the subnet (ie, 192.168.1.0/24) have rw access . A client machine, 'A', can mount the share S:/big. But client machine 'B' cannot. Not only are they on the same subnet, but this had been working for quite awhile. Also, I have another client 'C' and it can still mount the server's S:/big share.
When I say that 'B' cannot mount S:/big, what really happens is that the mount call just hangs for a long time (10min+). There is nothing in dmesg or /var/log/messages either.I don't think I did anything that would have changed this. The lines in '/etc/exports' are still the same. Machine 'B' has complete net access to 'S' (ping, ssh, etc), and 'B' can even mount samba shares on 'S'. Just not nfs.

I have FC14 running NIS master and the Solaris 10 (192.168.0.10) client is able to use authenticate. However, when I try to change the passwd (via yppasswd) on the Solaris host it reports "Permission denied".
On the FC14 host, the syslogs show that the passwd is invalid:
Code:
Dec 26 22:09:49 linux rpc.yppasswdd[2031]: update test (uid=502) from host 192.168.0.10 rejected
Dec 26 22:09:49 linux rpc.yppasswdd[2031]: Invalid password.
The Solaris host has been reconfigured to generate md5 passwds and the linux host the same (via authconfig). Indeed when I set a local user's passwd on the Solaris host, the passwd (the shadow entry) looks like a MD5 passwd (starts: $1). I don't know if this is related to my NIS problem, but when I generate the SAME passwd on linux, the shadow entry is different.

I am running NFS and NIS servers in my FC8. Clients are also running FC8. Everything was working fine. I could login remotely to server as well as clients. Suddenly (few days ago) a problem started. I can not login remotely to client machines. I did not do anything. I can login to server remotely, but not the client. When I try to login, it accept password and nothing happens. Also, when I try to login from server to client same thing happens. We share the home directory of the server with client. Another question: there two type of nfs server nfs-user-server and nfs-kernel-server. I just use gui to set up the NFS. I don't know which one I am running. Is there any way to find out which nfs I am running?

My university allows me to connect remotely to my storage space. In Windows, I can use: Code: \name.of.server.ca and after I type my userID and password I can map the folder to a drive letter (say, X:) In Fedora, I can connect remotely with Connect to Server using sftp/ssh (although I've not been able to store the userID and password temporarily). What I'd like is to mount or map the remote folder in a way that would allow me to access it from applications (for example, to call a files on the server from within LaTeX ).

I have a server which currently has a samba share for a printer and my home directory. Both have been working fine for a while now. I have a drobo (which is like a little USB RAID machine) connect via USB to the linux box. While trying to share it via samba I get weird messages from my windows machine (see screenshot). I have tried to share multiple folders on this drobo and no luck, all the same result.
I also tried a symbolic link, no good.
Here is a screen shot

I am currently working on a Diskless Fedora10 based PXE image that should auto login and then launch the ICA client without launching the desktop (so normal autostart will not cut it)I have got the image up and running, the clients boot correctly, autologin etc, but still launch KDE, and I was hoping replace the desktop with the ICA Client.
