I have a VM that other VMs and servers mount from. This vm has an ip of say:
10.10.1.1
The folder that others mount is \export\images
So one VM mounts this in its fstab:
10.10.1.1:/export/images /export/images nfs rsize=32768,wsize=32768,actimeo=0,bg,intr
Great anything that has this in their FSTAB (os's I didn't build) can read and write to this directory all day!
A new PC I set up couldn't so I thought I also had to edit the 'servers' VM /etc/exports(which is sim linked for some reason? I didn't set this machine up)
It has the right line:
/export/images 10.22.1.93(rw)
That 10.22.1.93 is a server I set up. Which has the fstab entry:
10.10.1.1:/export/images /export/images nfs rsize=32768,wsize=32768,actimeo=0,bg,intr
This server I set up, if I do a mount -a it mounts everything from FSTAB and I goto /export/images and then try to touch a file and it says cannot 'Read-Only file system'.
I even unmount and do a mount -a as root again.
On the 'server' I did exportfs -a before trying all this. Still no go, do I have to reset my newly setup PC to get it to take? As far as I can tell this 'should be' letting my new machine read/write to the mount from its fstab .
