Troubleshooting and tuning NFS

Checking the nfsd daemon

Remote mounts also need the nfsd daemon to execute on NFS servers. Check the server's file /etc/init.d/nfs for the following (or similar) lines:

   if [ -x /usr/lib/nfs/nfsd ]
   then
   	$TFADMIN /usr/lib/nfs/nfsd -a > /dev/console 2>&1
   fi
To enable this daemon without rebooting, log in as the network administrator (or as a privileged user) and type:

/usr/lib/nfs/nfsd -a
