NFS issue with OSX (not lion) and NV+
Hi, I'm having some difficulties setting up nfs acces to my NV+. I can start NFS and set a number of threads (what is this? value set to one..) but it doesn't show in Finder. AFP and CIFS share w...
True, but the interesting thing is dat the AFP and CIFS shares are being displayed as Jochem_8TB (which is the name of the NAS) and the NFS share appears as 10.0.0.8 (which is the IP adress of the NAS).
That is because you are mounting the NFS share via the IP address, not the name (Your previous post stated this)
Overall, your setup looks just fine, including the NFS settings you are using to restrict host access. All symptoms now point to a permissions issue, specifically that "everyone" access is disabled.
Why are you trying to setup NFS access on your mac? NFS can be very, very useful but depending how much you trust your room-mate and anyone else who might have access to your network, NFS may not be a suitable protocol to use if you have data that you do not want others accessing as it is more difficult to secure shares that way vs CIFS and AFP. You may wish to reflect on this.
