NFS mount : RPC : Timed out on RedHat 9

Hi all.

I just installed redhat 9 on two machines and mount gives me RPC :
Timed out on client machine and on local it mounts ok.

Ex:

mount -t nfs 127.0.0.1:/mnt/test /mnt/test2 -> Works!!!(LOCAL)
mount -t nfs 192.168.0.2:/mnt/teste /mnt/teste2 -> NOPE! (ON CLIENT)

Since i checked export.conf
/mnt/test 192.168.0.2(ro)
/mnt/test 127.0.0.1(ro)

and my hosts.allow is

portmap:ALL
lockd:ALL
mountd:ALL
rquotad:ALL
statd:ALL

i can only think on a firewall. So, i stopped iptables and ip6tables
(i think they are the same, but i stopped both buy the way) and it's
still not working.

I installed redhat with high security level, but in my linuxconf there
is no firewalling rule on. I checked it all.

So, how can i know and stop ALL firewalling on my machine?

What are the services i have to restart? I restarted all buy the way
and it is still not working...

Thank You!

Try to flush the iptables, # iptables -F
And make sure all required services are turned on the client. Guarddog
is really good firewall. Always had good luck with it. I had this RPC
problem once, IIRC, it was the firewall.

Yes, i restarted iptables and nothing...

What do you mean on guarddog? If i allow all packets in this software
means that my system will allow all? It will configure my linux or it
works independent?

If i have a problem now with a firewall, this guarddog can only make
it higher, unless it configures my linux...

Am I right?

Do you run portmap on both machines?

Yes. I run portmap on both machines...

I can mount it local...

root> rpcinfo -u 127.0.0.1 nfs -> OK on both!!!

root> rpcinfo -u 192.168.0.2(1) nfs -> Error on both!!!

I still think it's a firewall problem...

But, how can i be sure? How can i disable all firewalling?

On RedHat 9:

# service iptables stop
or
# /etc/init.d/iptables stop

if you are using iptables, that is. It's the default, so unless you've chose
to use something else that's what RH will be using.

The easiest way is to run a script similar to this one:

#!/bin/bash
#
# Flush Chains
iptables -F
iptables -X
iptables -Z
# Set Policies
iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT
iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT

Yes, i stopped iptables and nothing done...

I installed the radhat 9 on both with security option level = medium

After this problem, i clicked -> system settings -> security level ->
no firewall -> close.

Then, i restarted all process listed in services.

Still not working...

Any hints?

Can you ping those addresses and what does ifconfig say?
