Cygwin nfs-server

Thu Jan 29 23:43:00 GMT 2004

I am currently working in an environment with Solaris, Linux, and 
Windows machines. I use Cygwin on my Windows machine all the time and I 
have very little issues. I am currently using Cygwin's nfs-server to 
create shares to mount on the Solaris and Linux machines. 
The nfs-server works great on my Windows 2000 Pro box, but will not run 
on Windows 2000 Server or Windows 2003 Server. portmap starts correctly 
and can be run as a server, but the rpc.nfsd and mountd.rpc both fail 
when they are started. 
When starting the services 'rpc.nfsd -F' or 'rpc.mountd -F' The error is 
as follows:
Cannot register service: RPC: Unable to send; errno = Cannot assign 
requested address
nfsd[3248] 01/29/104 16:09 rpcmisc.c 92 : unable to register (nfsd, 2, 
udp).
Cannot register service: RPC: Unable to send; errno = Cannot assign 
requested address
mountd[2404] 01/29/104 16:11 rpcmisc.c 92 : unable to register (mountd, 
1, udp).
I have seen a couple posts like this in the past and I am wondering if 
anyone has any more information.
Thanks for your help.
John
