Hi Jason,
Thanks for your quick response.
I've inserted the following line in hosts.deny
portmap: ALL
and the following line in hosts.allow
portmap: 192.168.100.0/255.255.255.0
The logged message is :
samba mountd[366]: mount request from unknown host 192.168.100.3
My understanding is that allowing portmap services will give me access to nfsd and mountd.
Do you any further pointers?
Best
Liam
>Did you allow portmap connections in /etc/hosts.allow? Remember that the new portmapper service uses tcp wrappers and NFS connections use portmap, so if you don't allow those in hosts.allow (assuming your hosts.deny says ALL : ALL like it should =) ) you can't make the NFS connection.
