Howto add NFS Mounts through “Disk Utility”

Snow Leopard Add comments

NFS mounts are now added using Disk Utility.
To add a Linux-hosted NFS share on network:

  1. Start Disk Utility
  2. Select NFS Mounts from the File menu
  3. Click the plus sign in the lower left corner
  4. Enter in your remote NFS URL info as described
  5. Enter the mount point (if you add it to /Network, then it will show up in the Shared section of Finder, in an entry called All).
  6. If you’re using secure ports on your server, then click the Advanced option and enter -P
  7. Click Verify
  8. Save your settings

Your  NFS mount is now available in system.

    How do you get it to prompt you for the remote server’s credentials? When I do this I get that I don’t have permission, which would make sense since my mac login and password differ from the remote server’s.

    Thanks,
    Sandy
