I am running a debian 6.0 open VZ container and can't get my NFS share to mount. The error I am getting is mount.nfs: mount to NFS server '' failed: timed out, giving up
However, using the same exact command in ubuntu 13.04 works. The NFS share is on my FreeNAS and is exported to the entire 192.168.1.0/24 network. I have installed the nfs-common and dependencies on both… Is there anything special with the openVZ containers since they aren't running their own kernel?
EDIT: I am using proxmox 3.0-13 as the container host

did you do :
be sure to stop the container first:
enable nfs for the container:
restart the container:
I run nfs clients on containers all the time with this setup.
Only oddity I find is once in a while the container won't auto mount nfs shares that are in the /etc/fstab
