NFS Server and NFS Client settings

In some systems, the NFS service is disabled. To enable this function, we need to set it manually. The settings of NFS Server and NFS Client are described in detail in this article. We hope that you will be able to master this part of knowledge.

Server (Solaris 9 ):

I. NFS Server settings:

Start the NFS Server service:

 
 

  
  
# /etc/rc3.d/S15nfs.server start 
 
 

Share directory:

Edit the/etc/dfs/dfstab file:

 
 

  
  
share -F nfs -o rw=10.0.0.13,root=10.0.0.13 /home 
 
 

Run "share all" to share the directory, or do not edit the file. directly input the file in the command line with the same effect.

Check whether share is successful"

 
 

  
  
# dfshares  
  
  
 
  
  
RESOURCE                                  SERVER ACCESS    TRANSPORT  
  
  
 
  
  
solaris:/home                         solaris  -         - 
 
 

Ii. NIS settings:

Copy the configuration file:

 
 

  
  
# cp /etc/nsswitch.nis /etc/nsswitch.conf 
 
 

Set Domain Name:

 
 

  
  
# domainname congli  
  
  
 
  
  
# echo congli > /etc/defaultdomain 
 
 

Initialize and start the service:

 
 

  
  
# ypinit -m  
  
  
 
  
  
# /usr/lib/netsvc/yp/ypstart 
 
 

Client (Solaris 9)

I. NFS Client settings:

Start the NFS Client service:

 
 

  
  
# /etc/rc2.d/S73nfs.client start 
 
 

Edit/etc/vfstab:

 
 

  
  
10.0.0.12:/home - /home nfs - yes soft,bg 
 
 

Mount the NFS file system:

 
 

  
  
# mountall -r 
 
 

Ii. NIS settings:

Copy the configuration file:

 
 

  
  
# cp /etc/nsswitch.nis /etc/nsswitch.conf 
 
 

Set Domain Name:

 
 

  
  
# domainname congli  
  
  
 
  
  
# echo congli > /etc/defaultdomain 
 
 

Add the IP address of the NIS server to/etc/hosts:

10.0.0.12 solaris

Initialize and start the service:

 
 

  
  
# Ypinit-m (fill in the hostname of the NIS server, Ctrl + D)
  
  
 
  
  
#/Usr/lib/netsvc/yp/ypstart
