Computer NFS shares

[Cooper]

If anyone on here knows about mounting nfs shares on linux I would love some help! I have 3 shares in my exports on my server and when I go to try and mount a share it mounts number 1 no matter what I do. I tried changing the exports files and arguments and that didnt fix it. Below is the command i am using. If you could shed some light on what Im doing wrong that would be awesome! Thanks in advance

sudo mount ipaddress:/path/to/share/ /path/to/mount/point

It mounts with no errors.

Try using the '-t' switch and specify it's an NFS device:

sudo mount -t nfs ipaddress:/path/to/share/ /path/to/mount/point

Also check to make sure firewall is not blocking the port, I believe it is 2049/TCP/UDP.

Backing up, so it mounts the first one fine, but the next 2 it fails? What does a showmount -e display? (warning the -e might not be supported)

I'm on the same network as the server, the firewall isn't blocking it. It mounts the first one fine then if I go to mount number 2 it mounts number 1 again. I'll try -t and let you know.

As spork suggested, what does showmount -e <nfs server ip> show? Are those other exports listed? What does your exports config look like?

Fwiw, on modern Linux distros you shouldn't have to specify the -t nfs option but it doesn't hurt to.
