NFS server fails: [nfssvc: Function not implemented]

NFS server fails: [nfssvc: Function not implemented]

Post by Nicolas Anqueti » Sun, 31 Dec 1899 09:00:00



HI,

I am trying to setup a NFS server.  I installed knfsd-1.2.2-4 on my
RedHat 6.0 box (kernel 2.2.16).
However, when I boot or try to run rpc.nfsd I get the message:
    nfssvc: Function not implemented

The NFS-HOWTO says very little about how to setup the server.

Any hint would be appreciated

This is a FAQ -- you need to enable NFS server support in your kernel. In
order to be offered that option, you must enable "Prompt for
experimental/incomplete code/drivers" under code maturity options.

1. NFS Server error-> nfssvc: Function not implemented

This seems to be a common error, one for which I have not found a
solution: I'm running RH 6.1 with support for NFS Server compiled as a
module. I installed and compiled the knfsd-1.4.7 package from the RH
distribution for the files to load.
I load the following:
insmod sunrpc (OK)
insmod lockd (OK)
insmod nfs (OK)
OK means no unresolved symbols, shows up correctly using lsmod.

Then I load the user-space daemons:
rpc.mountd (OK)
rpc.lockd (OK)
rpc.nfsd
nfssvc: Function not implemented

Can anyone shed some light on the problem?  The nfs-HOWTO assumes
everything goes smoothly and isn't very much help for this problem.

Some important observations:
When I do depmod -ea, I get one unresolved symbol from
lib/modules/2.2.12-20/fs/nfsd.o, complaining about the do_nfssrvctl()
symbol unresolved.  This happens after compiling the kernel for NFS
server support as module.

Any ideas anyone?
