NFS mount with Thunar
by toothandnail from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4TY27)
Anyone using Thunar with NFS mounts? I've followed the instructions in the Arch wiki and I'm not getting anywhere....
Tried on a couple of different machines, on two different networks. In both cases, I've modified /etc/fstab following the Arch wiki instructions. So I have an entry that looks like this:
Code:tarus:/home/files/data-1/stor /mnt/nfsshare nfs noauto,user,_netdev,bg 0 0Thunar is installed along with Gvfs-nfs, the mount point exists. However, no shortcut is created in Thunar, and if I double-click on the /mnt/nfsshare directory, nothing happens at all. I have no problem mounting the share from the command line and then accessing it from Thunar, but I was hoping to avoid the command line use in this case.
I'm hoping someone has set this up successfully and can tell me where I've gone wrong....
