NFS/Kernel Problem: getfh failed: Operation not permitted
From: Justin Piszcz

The error is: rpc.mountd: getfh failed: Operation not permitted
In order to fix this error, someone needs to run these commands on each
nfs server.
40 service nfs stop
41 rm -f /var/lib/nfs/etab /var/lib/nfs/rmtab /var/lib/nfs/state
/var/lib/xtab
42 touch /var/lib/nfs/etab /var/lib/nfs/rmtab /var/lib/nfs/state
/var/lib/xtab
43 chmod 644 /var/lib/nfs/etab /var/lib/nfs/rmtab /var/lib/nfs/state
/var/lib/xtab
44 service nfs start

This issue seems to be more of an NFS issue than a kernel one, but I was
wondering what other people had to say about it. There are a lot of
responses and questions concerning this error on google, but VERY few
people have a response or method of fixing it, much less finding a
permanent fix.
Has anyone found a fix or work-around that does not require restarting
NFS?
Please CC as I am not on either list.
Thanks,
Justin.
