Today I installed FreeNas 9.2.1.8 and now I am trying to set up a NFS. First I created a Volume with the volume manager. Then I created a dataset.

Now I want to set up a NFS for this dataset.

So I go to share, add UNIX(NFS) share, as mount point I select the path of my created dataset. As mapalluser and mapallgroup I select nouser and nogroup scince I changed the permission of the dataset to it.

As a final step I have gone to services and switchen on NFS.

When I now try to mount the nfs on Ubuntu 13.10 with 

sudo mount -t nfs 192.168.1.5:/mnt/Storage/NFS /home/tm/freenas/

It says mount.nfs Connection timed out

On the FreeNAS i got an message: rpcb_unset failed.

Does someone know what the problem here is?

Ok I solved the problem appearently I had to add my client to the host name database of my freenas server. The Setting can be found at Network Settings-> Global Configuration

And then I add it like:

192.168.1.4 clientmachinename
