OT: Binding NFS services to specific ip address

03-09-2010, 07:38 AM

Hi all,

I have a CentOS 5.4 server with 3 interfaces used as a NAS (SMB, iSCSI and NFS).
Is it possible to bind all NFS services (portmap, nfsd, mountd, etc) to a specific
interface?

Thanks.

Yes, /etc/sysconfig/nfs

Beware, however, that when you bind to, say, eth0, you'll loose
loopback access to those services. I know that caused a problem for a
friend of mine, but I can't recall exactly what broke.
