Download NFS Manager 3.9 from here.
http://www.bresink.com/osx/NFSManager.html
Start app, do not worry about the message warning box NFS DNS Check. I have never had an issue.
Also contrary to what has been said previously - > spaces in Volume names are allowed on my NFS OSX Mavericks setup.
When selecting your shared folders in XBMC, use Zeroconfig browser to add them.
This config also allows you to backup your library metadata from XBMC to the shared folders selected in NFS manager.
Configure Shares:
1. Select NFS Server > Share Definitions
2. Click plus + to add a share in Shared Folders window
3. Click "Select" below the + - and add your Folder you want to Share
4. Options - tick only this >> 'Allow clients to also mount objects in the shared folder"
5. User Mapping > Don't map users
6. Minimum Security > System standard only
7. Access Permission > Allow access from any network computer
8. Click "Apply" and you done.
9. NFS manager can now be Quit and OSX will still continue to share files and folders even after rebooting.
Note: Even if you have Wake for Network Access enabled in OSX Mavericks - Preferences > Energy Saver. Your Mac will still sleep using NFS sharing. This is a know problem and Apple still have not fixed the issue. Maybe OSX Yosemite could finally tidy this problem up.
For a sort of workaround, I recommend downloading a little app called Caffeine that sits in your top menu bar on OSX.

You can then keep your Mac awake for various time periods before Energy Saver sleep kicks in.
EDIT 1st Feb: It seems some are still having issues accessing NFS shares. If that is the case, please add the -N flag as outlined in this NFS sharing Wiki.

OK, finally I can see my Mac on Kodi, however my connected pocket drives can't be read
Please review the share definitions to correct the problem. The NFS server has returned the following description of the problem:

Am I missing something?
