Accessing NFS Shares

[knightjp]

I'm not sure what I am missing here. This is how I setup the FreeNAS box to share these folders. SMB works fine. I am just not able to access the same folders using NFS.
This is how I setup the shares.

These are the shares I set up.

I started the NFS service.

Not sure what options I need over here. Mine is just a standard home network so I left everything as default.

But when trying to access the Server from any capable device... I get the same error..

What am I missing? I followed the instructions as dictated here.

What are the permissions on your shared folders?

What are the permissions on your shared folders?

Well when I look at the pools these are the permissions set.

Could you post the /etc/exports file of your NAS?
Could you also try to mount the share by command line instead of a GUI tool?
The GUI screenshot does help in case something went wrong on the client side.

Here you go.

Please?

Your exports file looks OK so far. But please also post the permissions of that folder. I see you like your screenshots, but could you please post
the output of ls -ld /mnt/Movies/Movies and getfacl /mnt/Movies/Movies

And please don't post screenshots, copy and paste the content and put in [code][/code] tags.

It's probably a permission issue. For test purposes add root as a maproot user to your share. This way the client mounting has
root rights to that share. Otherwise root on the client will have the rights of user "nobody" on the server.
If that works, it's a permission issue. Fix the permissions and remove the maproot.

Understood. Here are the outputs as requested.
ls -ld /mnt/Movies/Movies
d---rwx---+ 5 root Pereira 6 Jun 20 18:05 /mnt/Movies/Movies

getfacl /mnt/Movies/Movies
# file: /mnt/Movies/Movies # owner: root # group: Pereira group:Pereira:rwxpDdaARWcCos:fd-----:allow everyone@:--------------:fd-----:allow

So only the Pereira group has access to that share, not root. Does that groups (or GID) even exist on the client?
You still haven't posted the mount command of the client.

So fix the permission. Try my maproot suggestion.

The GID does not exist on the client as it is a MacOS system.
I was hoping that it would request me for the credentials

This is what happens when I use the "mount" command.

Code:

sudo mount -t nfs -o resvport,rw 192.168.1.10:/mnt/Movies/Movies /Users/julx/shares

Code:

mount_nfs: can't mount /mnt/Movies/Movies from 192.168.1.10 onto /Users/julx/shares: RPC prog. not avail
mount: /Users/julx/shares failed with 74

NFS does not work that way. You don't need a password.
The general permission to mount depends on user root being able to access the share.
After that the permissions are done by UID/GID matching.
I don't know about MacOS, e.g. if there are some special things on the client side.

I'd suggest giving root and "everyone" at least "r" and "x" permissions for that folder.

Thanks for the suggestion.
I have done set up the folder permissions like this..
