SOLVED NFS: Mount Denied

[brando56894]

I've been struggling with two of my NFS exports that are in the same dataset, they always seem to give me the Mount Denied by Server error, even though they're accessible to everyone. I accidentally rebooted my ESXi server which rebooted FreeNAS and all my other VMs. Once I brought everything back up I found that SABnzbd wasn't working and the reason was because Arch Linux couldn't mount the export for usenet, but it mounted the one for torrents without any issue. Nothing is wrong with the dataset, everything is as it should be in FreeNAS.

Here's the fstab for my Arch VM

Code:

192.168.1.7:/mnt/storage/downloads/torrents	 /mnt/downloads/torrents											nfs			  auto,x-systemd.automount,x-systemd.device-timeout=10,timeo=14 0 0
192.168.1.7:/mnt/storage/downloads/usenet	   /mnt/downloads/usenet											  nfs			  auto,x-systemd.automount,x-systemd.device-timeout=10,timeo=14 0 0

proof that the data still exists in FreeNAS

Code:

[root@freenas] ~# ls -lh /mnt/storage/downloads/usenet/															 total 58
drwxrwxrwx  4 bran  users	 4B Jun 17 14:55 ./
drwxrwxrwx  5 bran  users	 7B Sep  9 22:26 ../
drwxrwxrwx  5 bran  users	 5B Nov  8 19:20 complete/
drwxr-xr-x  2 bran  users	 2B Nov  8 04:58 incomplete/

List of Exports

Code:

Export list for freenas:																					   
/mnt/safekeeping/backups		  (everyone)	  
/mnt/safekeeping/misc			 (everyone)																	   
/mnt/safekeeping/usenet_data/bran (everyone)																		
/mnt/storage/downloads/torrents   192.168.1.0																	   
/mnt/storage/downloads/usenet	 (everyone)																		
/mnt/storage/multimedia/movies	(everyone)																		
/mnt/storage/multimedia/tv		(everyone) 

[bran@pirate-ship]: ~>$ sudo mount /mnt/downloads/usenet mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 192.168.1.7:/mnt/storage/downloads/usenet

Code:

[root@freenas] ~# cat /etc/exports
/mnt/storage/downloads/usenet
/mnt/safekeeping/misc  -alldirs -mapall=bran:users
/mnt/storage/downloads/torrents  -network 192.168.1.0/24
/mnt/storage/multimedia/tv
/mnt/storage/multimedia/movies
/mnt/safekeeping/usenet_data/bran
/mnt/safekeeping/backups

I even re-created the export in the FreeNAS GUI but that didn't fix anything.

I managed to get it to mount by enabling NFSv4 in the NFS config page.

Holy crud I've been fighting for days with this. I even factory reset my install sacrificing a small amount of data. Thank you for taking the time to post your solution.

No problem, it's very annoying that NFS gives a generic "denied" error when the problem could be multiple things.
