No write permission on NFS share
I have a NV+ and I have NFS enabled for the default media share.
I have mounted this share in my Unraid server with the mount command:
mount -t nfs 192.168.xxx.xxx:/media /mnt/netgear
I can see the files on this share in Midnight Commander.
But copying files to this share doesnt work.
I get a permission denied error.
Should I set UID or GID with the mount command?
Or.. should I alter certain NFS settings on the NV+
Please help, this is bugging me a lot!

Can you tell me how to do this? Can I set the UID and GID with the mount command I wrote in the OP above?
