Yes, we have successfully NFS mounted Centos 7 file systems from the following systems:

Centos 7
RHEL 6
Fedora 9
Fedora 15
Fedora 23
vxWorks 6.9.4

The only one that does not seem to work is vxWorks 5.5.

No, firewalld is not running.

Not me.

But one observation I made is that Centos 7 uses NFS 4.
To my understanding NFS 4 does not map the numerical user/group id
"1:1", by default, but wants to translate the remote user id into a local one
in some way.
And this is a security improvement.

In short: We needed to tweak a file called /etc/idmapd.conf.
I can dig out the details later.

Can you mount Centos 7 -> Centos 7 ?
