Can anyone explain this? How can it be fixed? Do some services need to
be started on the server?

The server is "weather". This log is from the client:
# mount -t nfs weather:/home/jonrysh /mnt/weather
# ls /mnt/weather
Desktop Documents Downloads Music Pictures Public Templates Videos grub2
# umount /mnt/weather
# mount -t nfs4 weather:/home/jonrysh /mnt/weather
mount.nfs4: mounting weather:/home/jonrysh failed, reason given by server:
No such file or directory
#
Thanks in advance - jon

I'll admit that I don't know much about this, but it might help to know
how that partition's formatted. It might make a difference in how it
gets mounted.

Following a suggestion in the Arch Linux Wiki:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NFSv4#Exports
I made this minor edit to /etc/exports on weather (the server)

Old /etc/exports:
/ amito(rw,no_root_squash)
/home/jonrysh amito(rw,no_root_squash)
New /etc/exports:
/ amito(rw,fsid=0,no_root_squash)
/home/jonrysh amito(rw,no_root_squash)
Note that the addition of "fsid=0" to the entry for the root directory
allows *both* the root and a directory under it to be exported. To
understand this better, read the following section in the Arch Linux
Wiki: Exporting directories outside your NFS root

All very subtle, and undocumented.

Could you post your /etc/exports from "weather" as the exports syntax is
different for nfs3 and nfs4.

NFSv4 works very differently from previous versions. You should be able
to Google up plenty of documentation.

The key point is that you can't just switch between v3 and v4 without
reconfiguring things.

possibly off-topic but a long, long, *long* time ago, i wondered if
you could set up a network using *exclusively* NFSv4, and found it was
impossible -- at least one of the client programs required some
earlier version of NFS even if it wasn't being used.

any clarification on whether one can run a *purely* NFSv4 network?

If you do a "modprobe nfs" the mount would work....

what version of Fedora you use? (nfs server / nfs client)
can you attach /etc/exports and /etc/syconfig/nfs files?
can you attach /etc/sysconfig/iptables?
All of these files are from nfs server side.

My thought was that you probably couldn't mount it as ntfs4 if it were
formatted as ntfs3. Again, just trying to eliminate an unlikely
possibility.
