NFS Shares not announced anymore
Tried posting this in another thread, but no response - it is lost in the crowd. Therefor starting new thread.
I cannot see NFS from XBMC anymore (goes for both Windows and RPi installations...)
Hope someone can shed some light on the subject!
Problem was not present in 6.1.9 and previous releases.
Problem is a little cloudy; it is not "advertising" shares over NFS. It is possible to get files via NFS from XBMC. I know that because I added the files to the XBMC library pre-6.2.0 and they are still accessible from XBMC. Problem is only when you in XBMC want to add new locations. Then the NAS does not show up as an NFS server. SMB and SAMBA seems to advertise themselves: This is evident when using the Zeroconf browser in XBMC.
So, in my conclusion, the problem might be on the NAS and the "advertisement" (pleeeeeease, tell me what the correct word is :) ).
Funny thing is, that if I use the showmount cmd from an RPi with XBMC:
As you can see, NFSv4 is enabled on the NAS.
Please also see my post on Kodi forum (formerly known as XBMC) http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid ... pid1867014
Problem is also present in XBMC on Windows.
Can someone shed some light on the subject?! Please
Thanks!

I still haven't heard from them.
But hopefully they got what they needed, but whom knows it might be a good idea to send your logs as well, just in case our systems behaves differently :)
I'll let 'em work for now. It might take a little time... :) - SkywalkerNETGEAR ExpertWe're able to reproduce the issue in-house. It's currently not clear what the issue is, but hopefully we'll get there soon.

Sent from my HTC One (m8) - ZkiiFreakAspirantGood to hear that you're able to reproduce! Thanks for letting us know. Is there a chance it might be fixed within the current beta?

Thanks!
When it comes to beta builds for my other equipment I would instal it right away but when it comes to my NAS I'm a bit more careful (mostly because I'm not able to backup the entire storage @ 3tb. Only my most important stuff is backed up to multiple sources)
Or do you consider this beta as safe to install?
