[Gluster-users] cannot nfs mount glusterFS

[Matt Hodson]

I just installed distributed gluster FS on 2 CentOS 5 boxes. install  
and configuration seemed to go fine. gluterd is running. firewalls/ 
iptables are off.  however for the life of me i cannot nfs mount the  
main gluster server from either a OSX or a CentOS 5 box. I use NFS  
often and have a fair amount of experience with it so i've reviewed  
most of the common pitfalls.

here's the command that fails from centos:
$ sudo mount -v -t nfs 172.16.1.76:/gs-test /mnt/gluster/
mount: trying 172.16.1.76 prog 100003 vers 3 prot tcp port 2049
mount: trying 172.16.1.76 prog 100005 vers 3 prot udp port 909
mount: 172.16.1.76:/gs-test failed, reason given by server: No such  
file or directory

and the same one from OSX 10.5
sudo mount -v -t nfs 172.16.1.76:/gs-test /gluster/
mount_nfs: can't access /gs-test: No such file or directory

what's weird is that i can mount actual dirs on the gluster server,  
just not the gluster VOLNMAE. in other words, this command works fine  
because it's mounting an actual dir.
$sudo mount -v -t nfs 172.16.1.76:/ /mnt/gluster/

help?

thanks,
-matt
