I have an ISV with a strange NFS problem. The ISV has two Digital UNIX
boxes one running V3.0 and the other V4.0. V3.0 system can NFS mount
the disk on an IBM. However, from V4.0 he gets:
Bad MNT RPC: /ccc@ninivak: RPC: Authentication error; why = Invalid
client credential
/ccc is open to everybody to mount. Only Digital UNIX V4.0 has problem
with it.
Has anything changed on V4.0? Is it NFS2 or NFS3 problem?
THank you in advance.

Hi, I've seen errors like this in the past when the server doesn't know who the client is. You might want to double-check the following: 1. The client and server can ping each other by _name_, that way you know the gethostbyname lookups are succeeding. Maybe the 4.0 machine was just tossed onto the network and isn't in any hosts database. 2. Make sure the user on the client trying the mount is known. If uid=1234 tries to mount, and the server doesn't know who that is, it might be rejected. Just some suggestions... -Brian [Posted by WWW Notes gateway] | |||||
| 8824.2 | he can ping | HYDRA::PASHAPOUR | Disk space, the final frontier | Fri Feb 14 1997 14:04 | 6 |
He claims he can ping/rlogin both ways. I forwarded your message to
him. I'll see what he says back.
Thanks.
