Hi, I seem to have a problem with NFS on my 2 Quad+ boxes... The NFS server works for a while after rebooting the boxes, but it's not stable and stops working when using the network share from one box to the other after 2 hours or less... If I reboot, it starts to work again, but it's a pain in the ass...
If I go to rescan network (browser) after it fails, only cifs/samba shares show, yet in the settings menu, it says the NFS is running... I've tried uninstalling, reinstalling NFS in the network>utilities menu and reflashing the image many times to no avail...
Only a reboot of one, or both boxes re-enables the NFS server, and then in network browser the NFS shares show up... But only for a period of time, depending on use...
Both boxes have an internal drive, which can be accessed by cifs/samba(not a problem), but my usb drive seems to only be accessible via NFS (USB/HDD2)... And that's the reason I'm posting...
Is there a solution to the NFS server crashing, or can I access my USB drive via cifs/samba in any other way, or can I use another protocol like miniDLNA, ftp, atp to access the USB drive...
Any help would be most appreciated, as I'm tearing my hair out... I just want a stable connection, and be able to access the usb drive on demand without faffing about...
Thanks...
