[Gllug] NFS across firewall

[Richard Turner]

Hi,

I have two boxen plugged-into a combo ADSL/switch.  Since they're essentially 
both plugged-into the Net (albeit with NAT done by the router) they both run 
firewalls, but I'd like to be able to use NFS to access one's files from the 
other (only one of them has a monitor).

Can anyone tell me which ports I need to open?  Simply opening 111 and 2049 
for TCP and UDP doesn't seem to do the trick (I get 'mount: RPC: Timed out'), 
but I know that the rest of my set-up is OK because if I bring down the 
firewalls entirely then I can mount the exports.

Cheers,

Richard.
