I am trying to mount a NFS share from my Qnap to my laptop which runs Manjaro (Arch Linux) but I keep getting access denied by the server and i can't figure out what the problem is!

$ sudo mount 10.0.2.6:/backup /mnt/nas/backup
mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 10.0.2.6:/backup

Mount points :

$ showmount -e 10.0.2.6
Export list for 10.0.2.6:
/backup      
/Web         
/Recordings  
/Public      
/Multimedia  
/Download    
/Containers

Qnap folder permissions

Try this:

On QNAP go to Shared Folders and for desired folder Edit Shared Folder Permissions

  • choose Select permission type: NFS host access
  • Change Access Right change to Read only or No Limit.
  • For allowed IP address add * or 192.168.0.* or similar

Hope it helps

Cheers
