CentOS 7.x Configure basic NFSv4 server for sharing folders between two machines
On NFS4 server where folder to be shared is present, edit /etc/exports and add:
<folder-to-be-shared> *(rw,no_root_squash,crossmnt)
Ensure that nfsserver is running:
systemctl enable nfsserver systemctl start nfsserver
On the NFS4 server disable firewall and SELinux for easy configuration:
systemctl disable firewalld systemctl stop firewalld setenforce 0 #edit /etc/sysconfig/selinux and set SELINUX=disabled
To verify that folders are exported properly use:
showmount -e exportfs -v
to see exported filesystems and related export options.
Finally, on client test using:
mount -t nfs4 <nfs4-server-ip-or-fqdn>:<exported-folder> <client-mount-point>
If this test is successful, add appropriate lines in /etc/fstab to automatically mount the nfs share on client boot.
