Hi,
I'm trying to mount an NFS share on Max OS X Server 10.7.3 from xbmc on Apple-TV 2 (4.3). I've followed the instructions on the Wiki, i e I added the -N argument to the nfsd plist and I created the /etc/exports file before restarting nfsd. When I enter the nfs:// URL in xbmc, however, it gives me a dialog saying that there's no connection. The debug log looks like this:
I set up my exports like this:
Any ideas?
Edit:
Perhaps I should add that I'm able to mount the directories using AFP. However, due to the excruciating delays when trying to play a video file (there's about a minute before the UI even says it's "Working"! Is this to be expected?), not to mention frequent crashes, I figured I would give NFS a try...
Edit 2:
I actually solved the AFP problem now -- There were some leftover setup RARs in /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/temp that xbmc for some reason was trying to open each time I opened a video file. Moving these RARs out of the way did the trick, the videos launch really fast now! So I'm probably abandoning my NFS attempts for now, although I'd be happy to reproduce the fault if someone's interested.
