NAS540 how to NFS??

Auric · January 2020

I got a NAS540 running good, is 3/4 full of Videos. I like to use NFS to get the videos to my Kodi@FireTV because SMB sucks. I got NFS running on the NAS, I edited the *** file to "unsecure" I connected Kodi@FireTV via NFS @ NAS540 successful, so far so good.

I don't see anything what's on the NAS in Kodi. Just an empty folder.

So what do I have to do to see what's on the NAS?

You need to mount NFS folder on Windows/Linux device.

FYI.

Hello,
I am using the following solution:

Move CIFS directories to NFS: e.g. mv /i-data/BLBLBA/video /i-data/BLBLBA/nfs/video
Create symbolic links for the former CIFS directories: e.g.. ln -s /i-data/BLBLBA/nfs/video /i-data/BLBLBA/video

If you use this solution you have identical directory content for CIFS and NFS shares.

-shv

I am also looking for running my smb and my nfs from the same harddrive and i just have all folders and files in root of the hdds so im not organizing anything.
I read something about linking but dont undestand. Thank you.
