+ | **Mounting NFS from /etc/fstab** | ||
+ | Normally NFS support in Linux systems depends on kernel support and NFS services - specific for NFS2/3 servers and NFS4 servers. | ||
+ | |||
+ | By default XBian is not starting those upon boot, but tries automatically guess, if they are needed. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If any NFS mounts are specified in /etc/fstab, base support is loaded, then depending on NFS or NFS4, statd, idmapd and gssd are started. | ||
+ | |||
+ | (still, they can be force started by editing /etc/default/nfs-common and putting "yes" to autoload) | ||
+ | |||
+ | With recent updates to NFS system support, NFS4 as fstab fstype was depreciated and "vers=2/3/4" as mountoption is recommended. For some users there are no issues, for others lost auto mounting for NFS drives in fstab. | ||
+ | |||
+ | This is mostly caused by system trying NFS4 also for fstypes specified as NFS - and failing in few minutes definitely. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Help is very easy, if your mount line in /etc/fstab used to look like this before | ||
+ | <code> | ||
+ | my.server:/mount/folder /mnt/nfs nfs rw,defaults,intr 0 0 | ||
+ | </code> | ||
+ | |||
+ | change it to: | ||
+ | <code> | ||
+ | my.server:/mount/folder /mnt/nfs nfs rw,defaults,intr,vers=3 0 0 | ||
+ | </code> |
