strange nfs problem

Postby rikd » Mon Aug 13, 2007 21:14

Hoping someone has a quick solution to this...

I've a simple media server which exports a number of external drivers to the network. To do this I've created a single mountpoint on the server called /universe
I then have entries in fstab to mount each of the external drives to subdirs in /universe, i.e.
Code: Select all
/dev/sda6 on /universe/staging type reiserfs (rw,noatime,notail,user_xattr)
/dev/sda1 on /boot type ext3 (rw,user_xattr)
/dev/shm on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
/dev/sde1 on /universe/mercury type ext3 (rw)
/dev/sdb1 on /universe/saturn type ext2 (rw)
/dev/sdc1 on /universe/neptune type ext3 (rw)
/dev/sdd1 on /universe/jupiter type ext3 (rw)


All good so far :)

Next I try and export that via nfs, with the following in /etc/exports
Code: Select all
/universe 192.168.1.1/12(rw,sync,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash)


Now the strange bit...
When I mount /universe on the client via
Code: Select all
mount -t nfs -o defaults,ro 192.168.1.12:/universe /net/universe

I can only see the mountpoints of the drives, and not the contents.

Any thoughts?
TIA
