Solved Visibility of NFS shares

Question 
Hi,

I've set-up several NFS shares as sources for music/video libraries in XBMC e.g.

nfs://192.168.1.10/volume1/film

These all work without any problem.

But for some reason I can't see any NFS shares from the desktop/CLI. I've tried browsing the network, and looked in /media and /mnt and /etc/exports doesn't exist.

Does the NFS capability only work when XBMC is running or is there a trick to accessing the shares?

If anyone could tell me I'd really appreciate it, otherwise I'll go ahead and create mountpoints and add them to /etc/fstab - but this seems a little pointless if NFS is already working on the system.

Thanks.

It use libnfs to only access share from within xbmc. If you want permanent access, you should mount them outside xbmc (fstab, autofs...)
