Sharing via NFS in addition to SMB?

Postby techlife » Mon Jan 16, 2012 7:39 pm

I use my Amahi server (F12) almost exclusively for backing up my music and movies and making them available around the house using XBMC on various appliances. From what I have read in the XBMC forums, NFS is much preferred to SMB for streaming as it supposedly eliminates buffering, lag, etc. Is there any reason why I couldn't setup NFS and access my greyhole shares that way in addition to SMB? Is there any danger to greyhole?

Thanks in advance!

Recommend you post this in the Greyhole area. Better chance of getting a reply from the Greyhole author. He would probably know best if this would work.
