NFS Server configuration

Run the below commands to begin the NFS Server installation:

[nfs-server ]# yum install nfs-utils rpcbind

Next we export some arbitrary directory called  /opt/nfs .


Create  /opt/nfs  directory:

[nfs-server ]# mkdir -p /opt/nfs

and edit  /etc/exports  NFS exports file to add the below line while replacing the IP
address  [Link]  with the IP address of your client:

/opt/nfs [Link](no_root_squash,rw,sync)

[root@web ~]# cat /etc/exports

#/data/ [Link]/24(rw,sync,no_root_squash,no_all_squash)

/data/ [Link](rw,sync,no_root_squash,no_all_squash)

/data/ [Link](rw,sync,no_root_squash,no_all_squash)

/data/ [Link](rw,sync,no_root_squash,no_all_squash)

/data/ [Link](rw,sync,no_root_squash,no_all_squash)

[root@web ~]#

Next make sure to enable  2049  port on your firewall to allow clients requests:

[nfs-server ]# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=2049/tcp --permanent

[nfs-server ]# firewall-cmd --reload

Start  rpcbind  daemon and NFS server in this order:


[nfs-server ]# service rpcbind start; service nfs start

[root@web ~]# exportfs

/data [Link]

/data [Link]

Check the NFS server status:

[nfs-server ]# service nfs status
