NFS Support for TS-201

mos · Post by **mos** » Tue Sep 04, 2007 11:32 am

I know that the newer TS-209 has NFS support. It would be great if the TS-201 could also have this feature as well.

Since the TS-201 is running Linux I don't think it would be to hard to enable.

Cheers mos,

Thanks for your post. Sorry to inform you that TS-201 will not support NFS. You may consider to get a TS-209Pro?

mos,

don't consider buying a new box because of missing nfs.
Look at the NSLU2-Linux TS-101 page howto install ipkg. Then install the unfs3 paket. Create a nfs export file under /opt/etc/exports and run:
portmap
/opt/sbin/unfsd -e /opt/etc/exports

If you want to run nfs over SSH you shouldn't run portmap. Instead you should start nfs with
/opt/sbin/unfsd -e /opt/etc/exports -n 2049 -m 2050 -t -p
(type /opt/sbin/unfsd -h for explanations)

On the client side:
mount TS-201name:/your_share /mnt/local_mountpoint -t nfs -o
nolock,tcp,port=2049,mountport=2050

You should forward ports 2049+2050 if you wanted to use nfs over SSH
(install dropbear if you want to have SSH in your NAS box).

I have the TS-101.
Why can't Qnap integrate NFS if it with OPTWARE Packeten also goes?

Please Tell Me.

Hi herb61,

Due to all the software packages is saved in flash(TS-101/TS-201), however, the free size of the flash is almost to zero.
This is the major reason that we can't integrate NFS inside the f/w.

I tried this advices but only get "console.cgi fail..."
My servername is NAS8AB377 and the MAC-address is
00:08:9B:8A:B3:77
and the firmwarwversion is 2.0.1
I used the following string to find the hex string:

QNAP_NAS_NAS8AB377_00:08:9B:8A:B3:77_2.0.1

I get the following hex string:
de5b6804db87b34e9630799404be5e2d

What do I do wrong?

LOL - Have been struggling to mount my shares on my TS-201 for a day now - simply assumed it would support NFS!

Really good answer TimThaler!
Fortunately I recently got Transmission to run, so all the "ipkg preperation" were already in place
