Now you can rid your life of buggy SMB hacks once & for all. Sharing with NFS is great, buffering is much quicker & directory browsing much snappier. Your computer name should appear with NFS next to it, click the your computer & select the share. Click add share, and then click on the zeroconf button. Once everything is setup you will want to restart NFS for your changes to take effect You need to set the -N option in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ as below – this allows you to connect from XBMC (needs to be added to allow Non Root users to connect). You may also want to click the show advanced options and select to allow mounting of any sub folder, great for XBMC This is the simplest setup available & best to get you started with XBMC & NFS sharing. You can also set directories as Read Only but this will stop you being able to delete from within XBMC. If you follow the options in the picture you will have a share accessible to everyone (my network is double firewalled, and the internal subnetwork is on a different subnet & IP range so it’s fine for me to use this). Once it opens you need to click on share definitionsĬlick the + sign to add a definition and then use the select box to select your directory/drive to share Its available from NFS Managerĭrag it to your applications folder & fire it up.
NFS MANAGER LION FOR FREE
Ok First you need to grab a copy of NFS Manager for free & Install. NFS is now also supported in XBMC and Firecores Media Player for ATV2 so this is a good time to get to grips with NFS & rid your life of Samba once & for all. When this option is turned on, login to the shared folders by Microsoft Networking. It’s quite hard to configure but thanks to a handy OSX tool called NFS Manager it couldn’t be simpler to setup. Allow only NTLMv2 authentication: NTLMv2 stands for NT LAN Manager version 2. NFS is built into OSX as standard & is a very fast unix sharing protocol. I have since ditched samba altogether in favour of NFS. On the other hand, if you are running a Red Hat or a CentOS distribution, you will have to tweak the firewalld built-in firewall.
