NFS Share/Connection with Dune Smart D1

Hello,

I have a strange problem. I have just migrated from an NV+ to a new Readynas 516 unit.

Connecting my Dune Smart D1 media player via NFS to the NV+ worked without any problems.
But when I try to connect the player with the same settings to the RNS 516 via NFS the connection fails.
I just changed the IP-Address to the address of the new NAS device. Users and Shares are the same as on the NV+.

I got the SMB connection to work as well without any problems but NFS won't work.

regards starbuck

    the 516 includes the volume name as part of the export path.

    So you need \data\sharename, and not just sharename.
  • Thank you for the information. Didn't know that before. Now it works.
