May 1, 200917 yr I've read the instructions and searched about how to setup unraid for nfs shares. I think I have it setup correctly. I'm attempting to test these shares with a popcorn hour and a imac. Both are having the same result, which points to my unraid server. I have 4.4.2 and I'm running Bubbaraid. After setting up my shares, I added the follwoing in the Export (NFS) line, *(rw) For testing, and because there are lots of other things about the popcorn hour, I would rather continue testing with my imac and pc, and not add the bs with my popcorn hour right now. I have to admit, setting up the shares seems very easy. I can connect using my pch and imac using smb, without no issues. My pc (XP) also has no issues connecting to my unraid server shares. I've left the Exceptions, Valid Users, and Invalid Users all blank. My share name is all lower case. Any ideas on why my imac and pch cannot connect via NFS? Thanks!
May 2, 200917 yr For the iMac issue see this thread and specifically this post. Don't ask me why you have to do that but I guess you do. I do not run NFS shares so I can't comment on this but it should work. Look through that whole thread in general and you should be good to go.

Putting the *(rw,insecure) on the NFS line fixed the issue. Now off to test my popcorn hour. I'm hoping this is the same issue and it will work. Thanks again! Steve
May 7, 200917 yr Hmm that doesn't seem to work for me. I used that *(rw,insecure) string and i just get an error about "could not connect to the server because the name or password is incorrect" I've tried nfs://tower/movies nfs://root@tower/movies nfs://root:password@tower/movies and get the same error. Any idea guys? I'm using beta6

Any idea guys? I'm using beta6 try //tower/mnt/user/movies.. thats the true path i've just given nfs a try again i had a little play around with it when it was first released with not a great deal of joy.. i'm using win 7 now which has built in supportonce turned on (which vista didn't.. had to download and install stuff to allow it to work).. now i've got the shares added and can see them in explorer but when trying to open the drive i get access is denied... messed around and right clicking and going into properties you get a nfs attributes tab.. in there it had owner R,W,X all checked, but under group and other they weren't.. so checked them all and that got me into the drive and able to see the files.. but... couldn't access any files of folders, unless you right click on every single file 1 by 1 and do the same thing, which obviously isn't something thats realistic... anyone else come across this or have any insite... selecting all files first doesn't give you the nfs attributes tab then
July 4, 201016 yr i'm having the same problem as the post above ... i'm on a windows 7 box i tried mount -u:root unraid:/mnt/user/films t:\ but i get the access denied ... entering right click properties on the t drive, and then nfs tab gives me access to change permissions for the unraid share .. which is not what id like to do any ideas ?
