I enabled NFS in Enigma 2 interface and now I am trying to mount it using this command on Ubuntu:

Code

$ sudo mount -t nfs 192.168.1.3:/hdd/movie /mnt/dreambox

and I get this error:

Code

mount.nfs: mount to NFS server '192.168.1.3:/hdd/movie' failed: RPC Error: Program not registered

Where is the problem? I tried looking at /var/log/messages on dreambox, but it isn't there. And dmesg command shows nothing related to this.

Check on your dreambox if all necessary processes are running with

Code

root@dm7025plus2:~# ps ax | grep -e nfsd -e portmap -e mountd
20846 daemon      548 S   /usr/sbin/portmap 
20850 root            SW  [nfsd]
20851 root            SW  [nfsd]
20852 root            SW  [nfsd]
20853 root            SW  [nfsd]
20854 root            SW  [nfsd]
20855 root            SW  [nfsd]
20856 root            SW  [nfsd]
20857 root            SW  [nfsd]
20863 root       1052 S   /usr/sbin/mountd 
21083 root        568 S   grep -e nfsd -e portmap -e mountd

If portmap or mountd process are not running use nfsserver init script to restart:

Code

root@dm7025plus2:~# /etc/init.d/nfsserver restart

If this gives errors, better stop first and then start by executing

Code

root@dm7025plus2:~# /etc/init.d/nfsserver stop
root@dm7025plus2:~# /etc/init.d/nfsserver start

Code

root@dm8000:/etc# ps ax | grep -e nfsd -e portmap -e mountd
 1709 daemon  	556 S   /usr/sbin/portmap
 1721 root        	SW  [nfsd]
 1722 root        	SW  [nfsd]
 1723 root        	SW  [nfsd]
 2394 root    	572 S   grep -e nfsd -e portmap -e mountd

mountd process is not running, but unfortunately there is no init script /etc/init.d/nfsserver:

Code

root@dm8000:/etc/init.d# ls
autofs    	dropbear  	networking	reboot    	single    	umountfs
avahi-daemon  halt      	rc        	rmnologin 	syslog    	vsftpd
bootup    	inetd     	rcS       	sendsigs  	udev

I tried installing newer nfsd ipk from dreamboxupdate.com / experimental, but nothing changed:

Code

root@dm8000:~# ipkg install kernel-module-nfsd_2.6.12-r10_dm8000.ipk 
Installing kernel-module-nfsd (2.6.12-r10) to root...

Thank you for your help, schaumkeks! Although there is no init script for it, I was able to simply start mountd by running /usr/sbin/mountd and thats it. Now it works.
