[gentoo-user] nfs and samba doesn't mount at boot

[gentoo-user] nfs and samba doesn't mount at boot

[Pawel K]

Hello
NFS and SAMBA doesn't mount at boot:

1. NFS

I receive the following message at boot:
Sep 15 14:34:34 [rc-scripts] ERROR:  cannot start
nfsmount as net.eth0 could not start
Sep 15 14:34:35 [rc-scripts] ERROR:  cannot start
netmount as net.eth0 could not start

/etc/fstab:
remote_machine:/home/user/ /mnt_point nfs rw 0 0

I have both portmap and nfsmount running

The following command works fine:
/etc/init.d/nfsmount start

2. SAMBA

It also doesn't mount at boot.
I don't receive any message. It just doesn't mount.

/etc/fstab:
//1.2.3.4/specs /specs smbfs
defaults,ro,username=myname,password=mypass 0 0

But the following command works fine:
mount /specs

My Gentoo has been upgraded 3 weeks ago to 2006.1
portage. I have performed etc-update so my configs are
ok.
I think that it has stopped working after that.
I'm using the kernel: 2.6.15.1

Do You have any idea what can be wrong with my
configuration ?

Thank You for help

The answer is right there in the error messages. The scripts 
cannot bring up your eth0 interface, so there's a snowball's 
chance in hell of nfs or samba ever working until that's fixed.

You need to find out why networking isn't coming up. Start 
with /etc/conf.d/net and the output from ifconfig. 

Can you use ifconfig to bring the interface up manually? 
Run /etc/init.d/net.eth0 and inspect the output closely, 
that'll give you further clues.

It looks like an dependency problem on your init scripts.
Did you tried to run "depscan.sh"? it should fix init.d dependencies.

depscan.sh didn't help.
I find that when I remove xdm from default runlevel
everything works fine.
I can also see that when stopping xdm via:
/etc/init.d/xdm stop
I receive error message.
My xdm depend() section looks like:
depend() {
        need localmount

        # this should start as early as possible
        # we can't do 'before *' as that breaks it
        # (#139824) Start after ypbind and autofs for
network authentication
        # (#145219) Could use lirc mouse as input
device
        after bootmisc readahead-list ypbind autofs
openvpn gpm netmount lircd
        before alsasound net.lo

        # Start before X
        use acpid hald xfs
}

Do You have any idea what can be wrong ?
Thank You for help.

Can you post the output of "rc-update show". Snowballs chance but I
have an idea.
