I downloaded an nfsd daemon to run on my SAM 440 EP. I learn that I need a portmapper, e.g., in bin directory of AMITCP.
Two Questions:
1. Does anyone know another source for portmapper?
2. Will Amitcp run with AmigaOS 4.1?
I am curious where you grabbed the NFSD software from? I wouldn't mind getting an NFS client going on my Sam machine so I can access all my ogg's and movies etc.
I have to admit the last time I played with NFS on an Amiga was back when I used AmiTCP so I am not 100% sure what does or does not exist for AmigaOS4 since all I have bothered to do network wise is to get it onto my LAN and accessing the internet.
NFS requires RPC which is basically the port mapping. I can see RPC in services within the the internet preferences but a quick look has not shown me any of the other things I would expect to see.
Generally speaking from a *nix view for NFS to work, you need RPC installed aka the portmapper, the NFSD files which you already have and you also define your NFS shares/settings etc within the exports file.
Hrmm.. I found a copy of NFS client and NFSD on sourceforge, is this where you got yours from? I might have a play event though it is late where I am and I should get some sleep :P
