Hi,
I have a quick question for you readyNAS folks that also work with esx.
I have am trying to connect a esx 4 machine to a user share on my readyNAS box. I have created a seperate share on my NAS and can connect to the esx host fine, but when I try to connect to my user's share I get an error. It reads: Error during the configuration of the host: NFS Error: Unable to Mount filesystem: The mount request was denied by the NFS server. Check that the export exists and that the client is permitted to mount it.(I would attach the image but dont' know how). I figure that since you can't really put any credentials into esx for adding the nfs storage; that is the problem. Is there a way around adding NFS storage to ESX with credentials like for my user's share or is there a way in readyNAS to grant ESX access to user shares that normally need credentials.
