Creating NAS Mount Points
One of the limitations of the server app is that it does not allow the creation of NFS shares, this is fine in the world of Microsoft Windows, but less so when communicating with Linux and Unix servers, and in my case with my Security Camera that requires an NFS mount.
Fortunately there is a simple solution.
First check that the NFS daemon is running.
$ sudo nfsd status snfsd service is enabled nfsd is running (pid 5155, 20 threads)
Then edit the exports file and add your required NFS mount points as shown below.
Note that you have to stop and start the daemon for the new config file to be loaded
$ sudo vi /etc/exports /Surveillance -rw $ sudo nfsd stop Stopping the nfsd service (use 'disable' to make permanent) $ sudo nfsd start $ Starting the nfsd service $ sudo nfsd status nfsd service is enabled nfsd is running (pid 54479, 20 threads) $ mount [your network address]://Surveillance ./test/ $ mount [your network address]:/Surveillance on /Users/Mike/test (nfs, nodev, nosuid, mounted by Mike)
