Hi,
While i try to mount the NFS file system on the client linux server i am getting the error message as
Can you ping the host?
No route to host literally means just that - the client is unable to reach the server.
I can ping the host vice versa.. the ping output is ok.. Wondering wat is causing the issue.
Is your quote verbatim, i.e. does your mount command contain those <> s?
May I ask the obvious question:
You really mean 'hostname' here? If so, that name will need to be 'resolved' to an <ip> address for this to work.
So when you say that you can ping okay, does
ping <hostname>
work?
If that fails but
ping <ip address>
works, then name resolution is the problem.
