Situation
Unable to use ncpmount to get to a cluster enabled volume on linux.
Error: "Get host address `151.155.242.45': Server not found (0x8847)"
Error: "Get host address `151.155.242.45': Server not found (0x8847)"
Resolution
ncpmount uses UDP by default and not TCP. The ncpmount will
fail on cluster volumes because it is only listening to tcp on cluster
interface.
cluster interfaces are 151.155.242.44 and 151.155.242.45
non cluster address is 151.155.242.37
server:~ # netstat -ln | grep 524
tcp 0 0 151.155.242.44:524 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 151.155.242.45:524 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 151.155.242.37:524 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN

udp 0 0 151.155.242.37:524 0.0.0.0:*
Add the "-o tcp" switch to the ncpmount command to allow it to use tcp.

Add the "-o tcp" switch to the ncpmount command to allow it to use tcp.
