I have a server (10.0.0.1) and a client (10.0.0.2) systems, they both run Ubuntu 12.04, they are connected via ethernet.
They can ping each other. They can ssh into one another.
If I on the server I do:
sudo showmount -e 10.0.0.1
all the folders which I want to share are there.
From the server I ssh into the client and do:
sudo showmount -e 10.0.0.1
It times out, or takes so long I ctrl+z out.
I have been trying random suggestions from the internet all morning, any help?
