can not mount from aix client to linux nfs server

UNIX AIX

Hi,

I am trying to mount a nfs folder from AIX client to Linux NFS Server, but I got the following error:

# mount 128.127.11.121:/aix /to_be_del
mount: 1831-010 server 128.127.11.121 not responding: RPC: 1832-018 Port mapper
failure - RPC: 1832-008 Timed out
mount: retrying
128.127.11.121:/aix

I do not have problem if the Client OS is Linux but AIX.

Please help and advise....

Thanks a lot!

This is a classic AIX - Linux Problem related to how these very different OSs use ports with NFS. Hint :smiley:
