Nfs Or Smb Client Support?
« on: March 20, 2006, 04:43:48 pm »
Hi,  I know that you can mount the Z as a samba share, but can you mount an NFS or SMB share on a remote system to the Z?   Does it need additional packages?

I tried to mount an NFS share on my desktop, but it failed.    My goal is that I'll cross compile apps on my desktop, and I'd like to test them via a remote FS before copying them over.

You should be able to mount nfs no problem onto the Z.  There is also a smbclient package.  I never used the Z as an nfs server so I haven't tried yet.

I went back and tried it again (after doing an /etc/init.d/nfs stop/start on the host), it worked.   NFS can be tempramental sometimes!   Anyway, that's good news.
