NFS Mount problems

[Tom Judge]

Hi,


I have a HA NFS server setup,  but I am having some problems with 
mounting the NFS shares.  I have had to patch mountd to allow it to be 
configured with an IP to bind to,  its a bit of quick hack (no docs, 
ipv6 etc...) but solves the problem for us where mountd sends the 
packets from the wrong ip. (See patch bellow).


The NFS server IP is 172.31.0.200 and we have the following flags set in 
rc.conf:

nfs_server_flags="-u -t -n 4 -h 172.31.0.200"
rpcbind_flags="-h 172.31.0.200"
mountd_flags="-r -p 832 -h 172.31.0.200"

When I try and mount the share I get the following error the command:

maverick# mount nfs-server:/usr/home /usr/home
[udp] nfs-server:/usr/home: RPCPROG_MNT: RPC: Timed out
[udp] nfs-server:/usr/home: RPCPROG_MNT: RPC: Timed out

And the following data from tcpdump on the server:

[root at beaker /usr/home/mintel]# tcpdump -n 'ip host 172.31.0.2 and ip 
host 172.31.0.200'
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode

I can reproduce the problem on a number 6.2 Release systems (i386/amd64).

Has anyone seen this before,  or know of a fix?

Thanks

Tom
