We will be exposing one of the directories originally created on NFS network drive – in my case it was called Multimedia.
Login with to your QNAP drive as root. This is the machine working as a host.
Edit /etc/exports file. It should contain the following content:
"/share/Multimedia" *(rw,async,no_subtree_check,insecure,no_root_squash)
Run the following command:
exportfs -ra
It should recreate the exported file systems according to /etc/exports file.
Now, login to your Linux machine and run the following commands:
The following step might be not necessary:
sudo apt-get install portmap nfs-common
Create the mounting point directory:
mdkir -p /media/qnap
And finally mount the NFS directory:
sudo mount [ip_of_the_qnap_server]:/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/Multimedia /media/qnap
