[solved] (probably simple) NFS problem
I always use NFS to mount another computer over a wireless network, but for some reason I cannot mount the shares anymore. I used it about 2 days ago and it worked fine. I am certain that I didn't change anything since then; I followed all the steps from the NFS wiki, but I cannot find anything that is wrong. The error message on the client side (either as root or as user) is:
mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 192.168.0.102:/home
On the server side I root-tail everything.log on the desktop; before, when a failed mount took place, a notice would enter the logs, but now no message at all appears (this is probably a clue towards the answer).
I feel this is probably something very trivial, but all the daemons are in place, in the correct order, just as hosts.allow and the other configs. After all it worked 2 days ago.
Any clues?

Re: [solved] (probably simple) NFS problem
I have something similar: My arch server exports 3 folders exactly the same way. 2 of them are mounted automatically on my debian client. the 3rd one fails to mount with a similar error:
mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting (access denied).
Restarting nfs-server didn't work.
/EDIT: Not without any shame I can say that I found the problem: the permissions of the 1 folder on the client were changed to 770. Changing it back to 755 solved my problem.
