 NFS through VPN Hello, I'm new on SCO. I have two SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 boxes linked with a VPN So, two different subnet and two different local domain. I would like to set NFS to copy files (lots of...and some large)I from one boxe to the other. I have a root acces on the two boxes I tried scoadmin, but can't get info from the other side... How to do ? thanks for help Christophe      |

If the files are supposed to remain accessible from the other side, that's different, but if you just need to copy, use rcp, scp, even ftp. What does "can't get info from the other side" mean? Does each side have a route set for the vpn path? If not, that's the major part of your problem - if you can't ping, telnet, whatever to the other subnet, nfs sure won't work. If you can, than your nfs is just not set up right - is it running, did you export any filesystem, etc. -- Tony Lawrence Unix/Linux/Mac OS X resources: http://aplawrence.com |

There are good ideas... man rcp is very interesting at this time . Thanks. > What does "can't get info from the other side" mean? I get "Could not get authorization data for filesystem manager" when trying to open remote host witch exports a directory to "everybody, anywhere.." > Does each side have a route set for the vpn path?

You need to set up /etc/hosts.equiv or (for root) /.rhosts (and with 600 perms on .rhosts). Contents have to match the way this machine will see the other side - a ping will tell you that.. there's more at my site; search for "rhosts" > > >>What does "can't get info from the other side" mean? > > > I get "Could not get authorization data for filesystem manager" when > trying to open remote host witch exports a directory to "everybody, > anywhere.." > > >>Does each side have a route set for the vpn path? > > > Yes > > >>If you can, than your nfs is just not set up right > > > Sure.. > > >> - is it running, did you export any filesystem, etc. > > > Not sure... I'm not very experienced with unix world. You have to tell nfs what you want it to use. You put (at a minimum) one or more directories in /etc/exports and run exportfs -a (or reboot). -- Tony Lawrence Unix/Linux/Mac OS X resources: http://aplawrence.com |
