NFS Client

<< < (3/3)

ananix:
excuse me for asking stupid question but are you sure the two ubuntu machines are not sharing files through samba?

Im starting to get the picture that you unto know have been more of a user and i imagine one could share a folder on ubuntu server like in windows with right click and thats what you did and maybe ubuntu per default shares to cifs not having to ask "do you wanna share with default support in a windows enviroment?" and just do so.
And maybe something along the same lines happens when you used the client probably something like nautilius to even browse there (no nfs then, unless yp).

Happy you got it to work nfs still also seems complex to me after 12years of usage but it always proves me wrong.

gerald_clark:
You need to edit /opt/bootlocal.sh.
Add
/usr/local/etc/init.d/nfs-client start

You can also create your mount points here, and mount your nfs shares.

No sudo is needed here, as it runs as root already.

arcturus:
Already fixed the autostart of the nfs-client in bootlocal.sh, but thanks for the tip  :)

ananix: I'm pretty sure I'm not sharing over samba. Samba works really crappy for me as I can't get resonable write speeds to my file server. It's a slow 1.3GHz mobile celeron server but with gigabit ethernet and I'll only get like 10Mbyte/sec write speed over samba. Thats why I stopped using it for my PC and went with nfs instead. That'll give me like 60-70Mbytes/sec write speeds... I do have the media directory shared over samba too, but thats only used by my WD Live media player box. And no I did not mount my network drives with a right click. I never got that working... :)

Next up: USB soundcard and MPD.
Thanks again!

I'm running a Samba server on hardware that is far less capable than yours, and relative to the speed of my
hardware, my results are far better. I achieve 4Mbyte download speeds using a 233Mhz Pentium MMX with a
100Mbit/Sec. network card. See:
