June 6, 201313 yr I ran into an error today when trying to get NFS to mount on a new server of mine. When ever I try and get it mounted I get this error: mount.nfs: Connection timed out I am using this command to mount my share mount xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:/mnt/user/UserShare /mounts/nfs I'm assuming its because its going outside my datacenter so its not on the same subnet but I'm not sure. I have one server inside the DC where the unraid server is and I have it mounted to that server with NFS just fine. Using the exact same command, works perfect. But when I go to the new server which is in another DC I can not get it to mount. Both servers run CentOS 6.3 and have the same basic setup. I just get the connection timed out error on the new server. I can mount it using SMB just fine. But I would rather have NFS because of greater performance. For the NFS share I am using this rule *(rw). Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks
June 6, 201313 yr Author Could be a routing issue. Can you ping the remote server? I can ping both ways. SMB works just fine, NFS is the only one that has the connection time out.
June 6, 201313 yr What version of unRAID? 5.0 RC12 OK...there has been a LOT of discussion about NFS in RC13. That is why I asked. John

It may work for you, it may not. See here: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?board=48.0 RC10 works for many, it might be your best bet for now.
