Greetings, eh?
I just started setting up a brand-new, out-of-the-box, Drobo 5N, and wanted to get NFS working on it, so I can transfer all of my stuff from my Linux box to the Drobo.
I dloaded nfs-1.2.8 from DroboPorts, copied it using my Mac onto the DroboApps share, and rebooted the Drobo. However, whenever I try to connect to it using the Linux box, I get error messages:
mount -v 192.168.1.10:/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/Public /media/Drobo
mount.nfs: timeout set for Thu Sep 12 22:11:59 2013
mount.nfs: trying text-based options ‘vers=4,addr=192.168.1.10,clientaddr=192.168.1.101’
mount.nfs: mount(2): No such device
mount.nfs: No such device
On the Mac (10.8), when I try Connect to Server and use the address:
nfs://192.168.1.10:/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/Public
or
nfs://192.168.1.10/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/Public
I get the “There was a problem connecting to server 192.168.1.10” error message.
When I ssh into the Drobo5N as root, I checked my /mnt/DroboFS/Shares/DroboApps/nfs/etc/exports file and found this:
/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/Public 192.168.1.0/24 169.254.165.198(rw,insecure,no_subtree_check,all_squash,anonuid=99,anongid=99)
which, following some details on this website, I changed to this:
/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/Public 192.168.1.0/24 169.254.165.198(rw,insecure,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,anonuid=0,anongid=0)
Still nothing. Then I tried:
/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/Public 192.168.1.0/24 (rw,no_root_squash)
And nothing still.
When I check ps, here’s (part of) what I see:

If I run ‘./service.sh stop’, rpcbind, rpc.mountd, rpc.statd, and mfsd all stop.
ls
bin etc host_uid.txt modules sbin service.sh share var
cd modules
ls
nfsd.ko
The 5N shows up in the Dashboard and I can connect to DroboApps and Public using AFP.
So, any ideas? What exactly am I getting wrong?
