    In fact only NFS is needed for a mount between two boxes, as that is the preferred method.
    It is indeed possible to use cifs-mounts (requiring Samba to be installed) but as that is the Winows-way I would only use that when actually needed (i.e. connecting to/from a Windows-platform).

    Be aware, as Stanman said, to install NFS on both boxes.

    Help asked via PM will be ignored.
    The forum is there for help and all will benefit from your questions.
    NO CARD SHARING TALK WILL BE TOLERATED, LAN OR WAN, IN OPEN FORUM OR PM !

    English is not my native tongue.
    I apologise for all my grammar, spelling and idiom errors.

    Thanks. I have this working now but I also installed Samba. How do I uninstall Samba as my flash Memory useage has incresed by installing both NFS and Samba.

    Also, I have tried the "move" function (green button) to move recordings from one HDD to the second box's HDD. This did not work. Do I need to enable something in order to move recordings from one HDD to another?
