threatdisplay Wrote:hey there sorry i missed this question. will post as soon as i get home from work.
basically all you have to do is edit and add the "-N" script, per the directions.
you have to log in as root to do this, or it is not editable. look up how to enable root access on os x, it's on google somewhere.
hope this helps.

* reduce number of mount requests to a minimum (increase performance on directory browsing)
* add dns name resolution (so at least dns resolvable names can be used in nfs urls)
* make nfs code in xbmc more robust to wrong configuration of url's or shutdown nfs servers
* libnfs: increased performance on read requests
* libnfs: fetch a list with exported filesystems from the server
* libnfs: fetch a list with all nfs servers inside one subnet.
* libnfs: compatibilityfix for solaris nfs servers
So this means in the next libnfs / xbmc version you even don't need to setup the nfs url. It will be just as simple as browsing the network for samba servers then. There is no ETA since i'm working together with the libnfs dev here who is busy during the week. So we have to sync on weekends.
Memphiz Wrote:hosts file is not dns ... it resolvs dns names ... so if you don't have a local dns server in your lan - you have to use the ip...
i for myself use maradns on my router which serves me with my local top level domain "sog" and all hosts have dns entrys there...
Kurdsson Wrote:Hi,
Have had my appleTv a couple of days. Installed xbmc and have a qnap219p. When i connect to qnap through NFS I can se my folders but cannot open them. Have tried to find a solution but I'm not that technical. Hope for clues or solutions.
atvtwo Wrote:Just upgraded to the latest nightly and tried to setup NFS but have the same problem. I've configured it as described using NFS Manager & the mod on my local NFS xml but can only see the shared folder on my ATV2 and not list its content. SMB works fine, i would just like to use NFS as it has better performance. I'm using Snow Leopard.
