Technote (troubleshooting)
Problem(Abstract)
When nfs mounting from a Linux NFS server, customer gets the following
error:
vmount: operation not permitted
Symptom
Unable to mount the remote filesystem.
Cause
Sometimes Linux NFS servers will do port checking and require that the NFS client use a reserved port.
Environment
AIX versions 4.x and 5.x.
Resolving the problem
Here is an example using a reserved port mount option.
root@lpar3:/ # mount 10.5.0.5:/repository /mnt
mount: 1831-008 giving up on:
10.5.0.5:/repository
vmount: Operation not permitted.
root@lpar3:/ # nfso -o nfs_use_reserved_ports=1
Setting nfs_use_reserved_ports to 1
root@lpar3:/ # mount 10.5.0.5:/repository /mnt
To make this setting permanent use the nfso '-p' switch or add it to /etc/rc.local.
