Cant create NFS share

  • Does anybody have an howto guide to create an NFS share? I've been trying for half an hour now but I cant get it to work


    If I try to connect to "nfs://192.168.1.20/export/share" on my mac (Mountain Lion) I get this error:


    There was a problem connecting to the server “192.168.1.20”.
    Check the server name or IP address, and then try again. If you continue to have problems, contact your system administrator.


    Please help me :)

  • Not saying that I have a success story (I still have issues with NFS) but try connecting to http://ipaddress ... when you get the connect as dialog fill in your credentials. This is when my issue pops in... it says I have no permission to connect which isn't true (I doubled checked my permissions for the shared folder). Help appreciated!


    Kind regards,

  • Permissions for NFS are not only folder based, but also export based. So you can and need to export a NFS share with a specific user or for any user. So the export settings can be the reason here. Just guessing - never used it. Also if you try to connect via root, the connection could be prohibited. This is very generic, I know. But I do not have any NFS mounts in my OMV

    Everything is possible, sometimes it requires Google to find out how.
