Hello,
I also want to firewall an nfs server. The box that it's running on uses
pf, it's a 6.2 box. I've got tcp port 2049 open, and am not sure what else
to open or what other daemons to start. I'm also uncertain as to whether
FreeBSD uses nfs v3 or v4? I want to export home directories to five or six
different linux machines, some ubuntu and most centos5 and i remember
vaguely reading about nfs v4. If anyone has this working i'd appreciate
pointers.
Thanks.
Dave.
