Hi Michael,
In May 2001 you posted a problem you were having with mounting nfs when you use
the @netgroup entry in the /etc/exports file. Your posting is shown below.
I have the exact same problem, i.e. I am getting Permission denied on clients
who are present in the netgroup and hence should be able to mount the exported
file system. On the export host (Intel box) I am running Suse 8.1 and trying to
mount the filesystem on a sparc 20 running Solaris 2.5.1.
Can you advise on your solution.
Many thanks.

I just re-installed my system with the latest KRUD. I have
been using mandrake prior to this without issue. I am not
getting what I think should be the appropriate behaviour from
nfs/mountd. The only enties in my /etc/exports file that seem
to allow remote hosts to mount are single host entries. If I
try
/home @all(rw) # @all is a valid netgroup and yp is running
I get a "Permission denied" error on the client and following entry in
/var/log/messages:
May 11 07:44:18 critter rpc.mountd: refused mount request from joker for /home
(/): no export entry
Same results with the entry:
/home *.ftc.agilent.com(rw)
But it works if I use:
/home joker(rw)
I also tried:
/home 130.29.208.0/28(rw)
With no luck. I was not sure how to format that last one. It is a class C
network.
Any ideas where to look for why only the host name is working in /etc/exports?
