NFS & Windows 7

Hi,

has anyone found a way to use NFS on the DNS-323 with Windows 7? I know that the Enterprise and Ulimate Editions have included a NFS client, unfortunately I only have the Professional version.

Turn on NFS Service: In ControlPanel ->Program&Component->WindowsComponents->NFS Services->NFS Client.

It maybe not exactly.... I'm using russian version of W7 Ultimate and its work for me.

Yes, unfortunately, only the Ultimate and Enterprise editions of Windows 7 include Microsofts NFS client. My Professional Edition doesn't.

Re: NFS & Windows 7

+1, I need a free/legal solution to mount NFS on my Windows 7 Professional. Of course I don't want to buy the Ultimate. IMHO Microsoft shouldn't ask for an extra fee for connecting to a free server, the price between Pro and Ultimate is much more than between Home and Pro. I need Pro's features but it's too much for just one Ultimate feature...

Re: NFS & Windows 7

Out of curiosity: What are the benefits of NFS over CIFS/SMB/SAMBA? Why use NFS for accessing data on the DNS-323 instead of the window's-native option?

Not on the DNS, but there is a free solution that works for win7.

It goes by installing cygwin, which contains a free NFS Server. You can get a resumed installation description here:

http://www.mpcclub.com/wiki/index.php/NFS_server_setup

Start where it says Windows,stop before it says:

also you need to create the directory with the folowing commands

* mkdir /kissnfs

(The article is referring to the installation for a media player)

the article is based on http://www.csparks.com/CygwinNFS/index.xml, which is more elaborate.
