Can't Use NFS to Access Home Shares
ReadyNAS model 102, Firmware version 6.1.8 - Tried to mount (on Linux) via entry in fstab a user's home folder and I get the error: mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting <IP address / user...

Usually, the home directories (folders) are exported as "/home/<username>" from the ReadyNAS.
Try that.
Also, from your Linux system, see if you can get the list of exports using the following:
That will give you a definitive list of your exported shares that are allowing NFS and the pathname will be shown as the first field of the output.
You might also want to check the allowed IPs of hosts and options in use for each share.
Hope that helps. :)
