Bug Description

I changed my router and the IP is different now.
I had this error when I tried mount with nfs:
mount.nfs: mount to NFS server 'rpcbind' failed: RPC Error: Program not registered

I fixed it, changing in /etc/host.allow the range to the new IP of the server computer.
Can you try it?
Best regards.

Nevermind. The nfs server was down, it works fine now. Strange error message though.

This does work in general in recent versions of Ubuntu, and all the follow-ups describe particular configuration errors rather than bugs in nfs-utils. So I'm closing this bug as invalid.
