mount complains about missing rpc.idmapd on nfs4 after a reboot on OEL5.8

user12999319May 8 2012 — edited May 8 2012

Hi all,

i am running OEL5.8 with kernel 2.6.32-300.21.1.el5uek.
On that Box i have two NFS4 mountpoints.

this worked fine over a year, since the last up2date mount complains:
Warning: rpc.idmapd appears not to be running.
All uids will be mapped to the nobody uid.

but
ps xa |grep rpc.idmap
6451 ? Ss 0:00 rpc.idmapd

so rpc.idmap is running. Also on the NFS-Server rpc.idmap is running.
on both i have set
Domain = localdomain

any ideas, why OEL complains about missing rpc.idmap?

best regards
thomas
