NFS Support for MyBookLive

Status: Implemented
by on ‎03-07-2011 12:05 PM

I would like to have NFS support in MyBookLive. NFS4 is preferred.

So why do I want to have that? Because I have a Linux Workstation and some "other" PCs. NFS is native for my box as well as for the Linux running on MyBookLive. More speed. File attributes. File types.

 

The other options for me are slower or more expensive NAS boxes. With more power consumption.

Or I build my own server. Which is more expensive and has more power consumption, too.

 

What do you think?

NFS support is already in the My Book Live. The path to the NFS share on the My Book Live is mybooklive:/nfs/[share name]. For example, if your unit still has the default device name the path to the Public share would be “mybooklive:/nfs/Public”. Note also that NFS access is only available for public shares. Private shares requiring a username and password are accessible on the My Book Live using NFS.
