I have a development board with my own Linux distribution created using Yocto Project and a laptop with Ubuntu. I would like the development board to be a server and the laptop to be a client.

On the development board I created a directory /nfsserver which I want to mount to /mnt/nfsclient on Ubuntu.

A content of /etc/exports is as follows:

/nfsserver clientIP(rw,no_root_squash,sync)

rpcinfo -p | grep nfs on the server and rpcinfo -p serverIP | grep nfs on the client shows:

 100003    2   tcp   2049  nfs

showmount -e on the server shows:

/nfsserver clientIP

and showmount -e serverIP on the client shows:

Export list for serverIP:
/nfsserver clientIP

When I try to use sudo mount -V 2 -t nfs serverIP:/nfsserver /mnt/nfsclient I get the following output:

mount from util-linux 2.31.1 (libmount 2.31.1: selinux, btrfs, assert, debug)

df -h shows no new entry.

What can be the cause of my problem with mounting nfs?

Thank you in advance for any help.

    Try (temporarily) disabling your firewall, and turning off SELinux if enabled (unlikely on Ubuntu). If either of these things help you know where to look.

  • this is a cross-post ( unix.stackexchange.com/questions/617380/i-cannot-mount-nfs ) I already wrote a comment there telling: -V displays the version and exits.
