   Ok, I need some #Linux help, web search didn't solve it.
   My server has nfs. My home assistant connects to that nfs just fine. Nothing else can connect to that nfs, and those that output an error give "access denied by server". I've set the nfs shares for all hosts, all the involved machines are in the same vlan on the same subnet, and other services on the server are accessible with no problem. I've set file perms to ro for all (temporary)
   Server: OpenSuse Tumbleweed
   Clients: Manjaro, FuriOS

     I've tried connecting with sudo mount, typing it in to dolphin, typing it in to whatever FuriOS's gnome based "files" app is, and adding it as a file source in Kodi. All fail. Works fine as a media share in Home Assistant though.
     
     I also tried nfs v3 and nfs v4.
     I've restarted the nfs server multiple times.
     I tried adding IPs to hosts.allow.

     @hellomiakoda A couple of these seem promising. The Linux Questions one got some in-depth replies. It sounds like a config file problem to me, but I've not used SuSE in a long time, so this is about the extent of my usefulness here (if any).

     @ferret Turns out I needed to add "insecure"

     @Miakoda :neurodiversity: I know I've had this issue before, trying to rack my brains on how I resolved it. I think at one time it was simply because the system service (nfs-server) wasn't running, so check that. Check your firewall as well (turn it off on both hosts to see if that's the issue).

     What operation is failing?

     Are you able to mount, but unable to access files?
     Are you unable to mount nfs exports?

     @bjb Mount was failing. Though I could mount other nfs just fine.

     @joshrivers @geillescas The ports were fine. I made sure of that

     @hellomiakoda
     Try nmap'ing the NFS ports from the client to the server (2049, 111, 35605)

     Anything other than "open" is a problem.

     @geillescas @hellomiakoda This. NFS is pretty bare bones. Usually if it’s not working it’s a network problem. Or maybe that you didn’t restart the daemon after config changes. Either way, nmap is the clue.

     Is IPv6 in this picture?
