→NFS Server Setup
* Login to the SERVER as a regular user (joker if you are working in lab T2107).
* Open a terminal window and switch to super user with the command "su -"
* Enter the command <pre>rcpinfo rpcinfo -p</pre>
* Study the output, especially the first few output lines. You should see a few lines that ended with the word "portmapper". If you did not see such lines, or you got something like "rpcinfo: can't contact portmapper: ...", then "portmapper" is not running. Try the command "service portmap start" and run the "rpcinfo -p" command again.
* Once you have portmapper running, start the NFS server with the command "service nfs start".
