WD MyBook WE NFS Enabled
December 23rd, 2007
Eee PC comes with XandrOS distro of Linux, therefore the way I access my network files is different than when I’m using Windows. Fortunately, there is a system called the Network File System (NFS). First generation of WD Netcenter are NFS enabled, but my recent acquisition — the MyBook World Edition — is not NFS enabled. Therefore I have to do the dirty work before I can access my audio/video files from my half-terabyte hard drive. The following are the steps I went through before successfully accomplishing the task:
- SSH Access in MyBook WE
- MyBook WE as NFS Server
- Mount the path:
mount mybook_ip:/shares/internal /mnt -o rw
That’s all folks!
