NFS in Openelec on ATV 1
#1
Per: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=NFS


I've configured /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.nfsd.plist by adding -N to

<array>
<string>/sbin/nfsd</string>
<string>-N</string>
</array>

1) I have successfully exported all my folders I want to share.

2) I have confirmed that the server is running.

3) My UID is 501.


In Openelec I am still not able to see my shares. When I go to add source and select NFS shares It says working like it's trying to find it but then quits. I restarted the service after all changes (sudo nfsd restart)


From my XBMC.log

I've connected to my Mac mini's shares on my iMac on the same network so I know it's working. The mount path is Volumes/mac-mini.local/Users/MacMini/TV

Can I just manually type nfs://mac-mini.local:/Users/MacMini/TV since it's not finding it? ( EDIT: This didn't work)


Any ideas?

try adding at least the insecure flag to your /etc/export

/Usr/MacMini/Music *(insecure)

nfs://ip/Users/MacMini/TV
