    can't start NFS :(

    Hi,

    I've been trying to start NFS but it's not working. Before that I tried to start Portmapper and it isn't working either:

    root@server4 [~]# /etc/init.d/portmap restart
    pmap_getmaps rpc problem: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection reset by peer
    Stopping portmapper: [FAILED]
    Starting portmapper: [ OK ]


    root@server [/var/lock/subsys]# rpcinfo -p
    rpcinfo: can't contact portmapper: rpcinfo: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection reset by peer


    root@server4 [~]# /etc/init.d/nfs start
    Starting NFS services: [ OK ]
    Starting NFS quotas: Cannot register service: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection refused
    rpc.rquotad: unable to register (RQUOTAPROG, RQUOTAVERS, udp). [FAILED]


    Content of hosts.allow:
    portmap: 66.77.88.99, localhost, 127.0.0.1
    lockd: 66.77.88.99, localhost, 127.0.0.1
    mountd: 66.77.88.99, localhost, 127.0.0.1
    rquotad: 66.77.88.99, localhost, 127.0.0.1
    statd: 66.77.88.99, localhost, 127.0.0.1


    Content of hosts.deny:
    portmap:ALL
    lockd:ALL
    mountd:ALL
    rqoutad:ALL
    statd:ALL


    Content of /etc/exports:
    /backup 66.77.88.99 (rw)


    Any ideas ?

    Portmap normally has its own init.d scripts. Something like /etc/init.d/portmap or /etc/init.d/rpc.portmap. Give that a try and then see if rpcinfo -p localhost works
