I've read through all the comments, but haven't found an answer to my problem. NFS client works like a charm in my case, WDTV can perfectlly see Windows7's exported folder made with nfsAxe. It works as NFS server too, I can connect to WDTW exported folder (/tmp/media/usb/USB2/189C39239C38FCB6 192.168.11.2(rw,async)) with my Windows7, but when I try to use it look what it says: C:\Users\leva>mount 192.168.11.5:/tmp/media/usb/USB2/189C39239C38FCB6 r: r: is now successfully connected to 192.168.11.5:/tmp/media/usb/USB2/189C39239C38FCB6 The command completed successfully. C:\Users\leva>r: Access is denied. C:\Users\leva> Do you guys think it is Win7 problem? Hi guys! I’ve read through all the comments, but haven’t found an answer to my problem.

Turns out if I used a different flash drive, reformatted as FAT, then it works. I still cannot get the NFS Server on the WDTV to work. Showmount works and shows the exported directories, but when I try to mount (from a Ubuntu system), it says: mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting Is there a host.allow and host.deny that I need to set? I tried this as well in /conf and that didn't work either. I have no firewall issues. I am trying to use NFS to copy files to the drive connected to the WDTV. I can use Samba, but it appears to be 5 times slower (I can copy to another PC running an NFS server connected to the same ethernet hub). So it appears to be a server issue, not connection issue. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Brad. Turns out if I used a different flash drive, reformatted as FAT, then it works. I still cannot get the NFS Server on the WDTV to work.

It doesn't pick up either net.config or net.mounts from USB. It defaulted to what is in /conf/config. I was able to telnet in and cp the files over to /conf and it picks up net.config after reboot. However net.mounts does not work. I looked for nfs in /apps and it is empty. I figure none of the apps are being picked up for some reason. I did change parameters in S00custom-options and that seems to change things. How do I manually telnet in and start an app like nfs? <<< edit: are you attempting to load apps off a hard drive? Flash devices have been found to work best. If still doesn't work resort to the forums for help. --b-rad >>> Upgraded to 0.5.8.1 (was at 0.5.7 and everything worked good) and trying to use NFS server.

Now at least if something happens to the disk it's attached to the Mac and fixable. When I first got it working some large movies had no sound and seemed a little jerky so I commented (#) the MTU=9000 in net.config. Should I leave it off or should it be some other number? Oh yeah, 5.8.1 doesn't load for me; the progress bar never moves. I've downloaded it a couple time from different sites with same results. I don't think I need it but since I was reloading WDLXTV I just went for the latest. Thanks for all the good work.

I'm still trying to get around having to pull my HFS+ disk back to my computer after every other FTP session cause it goes RO. So, I've got the drive on my Mac and am trying nfs. nfs pack loaded and 'ON'. Mac is exporting: # showmount -e 192.168.1.200 Export list for 192.168.1.200: /Volumes/Videos (everyone) 'xmount 192.168.1.200:/Volumes/Videos Videos nfs' in net.mounts df -h sees the drive mounted: 1.3T 1.3T 28.6G 98% /tmp/media/usb/Videos ls of /tmp/media/usb/Videos sees all my Movies/TV The problem I'm still having is that nothing shows up in the GUI. The only disk that's there is, I believe, the 'Empty' USB flash drive. Any hints why the Videos aren't available? Thanks. Hey b-rad, great work. I’m still trying to get around having to pull my HFS+ disk back to my computer after every other FTP session cause it goes RO. So, I’ve got the drive on my Mac and am trying nfs.

nfs pack loaded and ‘ON’.

Mac is exporting:
# showmount -e 192.168.1.200
Export list for 192.168.1.200:
/Volumes/Videos (everyone)

‘xmount 192.168.1.200:/Volumes/Videos Videos nfs’ in net.mounts

df -h sees the drive mounted: 1.3T 1.3T 28.6G 98% /tmp/media/usb/Videos

ls of /tmp/media/usb/Videos sees all my Movies/TV

The problem I’m still having is that nothing shows up in the GUI. The only disk that’s there is, I believe, the ‘Empty’ USB flash drive.

Any hints why the Videos aren’t available?
Thanks.
