By design, NFS v3 uses variable=unpredictable port numbers, determined at startup and announced through the "portmapper" service on fixed port 111.  Some NFS servers allow to configure fixeds port numbers for all NFS services, but AFAIK that's not possible with OneFS.  Which leaves us with three alternatives:  1. The rpcinfo tool shows the currently choosen port numbers. It is used by various scripts that have been written by firewall administrators facing similar problems. Such scripts could serve as a start for  building an automated dynamic portproxy set-up.  2. Switching to NFS v4, which has fixed port numbers.  3. Using a "bridged network" set-up for the external interface of the Isilon VM. This needs one more assigned address (like 10.2.41.211) for your physical network to attach the VM right to the outside world.  hth  -- Peter
Hi,  Currently I am running a one node OneFS 8.1 simulator inside a Windows machine (using VMWare workstation). The host machine has the following ipconfig settings:  C:\Users\Administrator>ipconfig Windows IP Configuration Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:    Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . : eng.foo.com corp.foo.com    IPv6 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : fda7:e6ee:2e09:0:40e4:bc7a:f31e:cfca    Temporary IPv6 Address. . . . . . : fda7:e6ee:2e09:0:74bd:33f:85a0:30ec    Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::40e4:bc7a:f31e:cfca%11    IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 10.2.41.210    Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.240.0    Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.2.32.1 Ethernet adapter VMware Network Adapter VMnet1:    Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :    IPv6 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : fdfe:9042:c53d:0:1d12:a8ba:dcfa:33ee    Temporary IPv6 Address. . . . . . : fdfe:9042:c53d:0:1459:c35f:aba2:8d27    Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::1d12:a8ba:dcfa:33ee%20    IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.117.1    Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0    Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : Ethernet adapter VMware Network Adapter VMnet8:    Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :    Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::a91f:bc7e:625a:5659%21    IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.77.1    Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0    Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : Tunnel adapter isatap.eng.foo.com corp.foo.com:    Media State . . . . . . . . . . . : Media disconnected    Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . : eng.foo.com corp.foo.com Tunnel adapter isatap.{02DA5412-3A2A-4D54-BBDF-078B738030FB}:    Media State . . . . . . . . . . . : Media disconnected    Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . : Tunnel adapter Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface:    Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :    IPv6 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 2001:0:9d38:90d7:14c3:31fa:f5fd:d62d    Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::14c3:31fa:f5fd:d62d%14    Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : Tunnel adapter isatap.{05BA8BEE-F6D6-4603-B8B9-0A4FFB605DC9}:    Media State . . . . . . . . . . . : Media disconnected    Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :  Then the Isilon node is configured with the following external and internal network: [IMAGE] [IMAGE]  Because I need to access the simulator node from outside the Windows host, I added the following port-forwarding rules on the Windows host: C:\Users\Administrator>netsh netsh>interface portproxy netsh interface portproxy>show all Listen on ipv4:             Connect to ipv4: Address         Port        Address         Port --------------- ----------  --------------- ---------- 10.2.41.210     8080        192.168.77.2    8080 10.2.41.210     445         192.168.77.2    445 10.2.41.210     111         192.168.77.2    111 10.2.41.210     2049        192.168.77.2    2049 10.2.41.210     300         192.168.77.2    300 10.2.41.210     22          192.168.77.2    22  Then, I can access the web-ui and ssh with no problem from another machine (10.2.52.33) by accessing 10.2.41.210:8080 and 10.2.41.210:22.  However, I cannot access the NFS share, with the following error: jason[NAME]-jason-ubu:~/mount$ sudo mount -t nfs -o vers=3,ro 10.2.41.210:/ifs/jason isilon-jason/ mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 10.2.41.210:/ifs/jason I have the following NFS share settings for that directory: [IMAGE]  So I was just wondering, what is wrong in my configuration that prevents me from mounting the NFS share from 10.2.52.33? Please feel free to let me know if any additional information needs to be provided.  Thank you so much in advance!
Cannot mount the NFS share from the simulator (8.1)
