CIFS/NFS MCC Issue [Solved]

[rAC]

Two different Mageia computers: 32 bit and 64 bit versions of Mageia 2. Trying to connect to a NAS - MCC networking/sharing section is not seeming to work.
I have added the NAS to the host definition section in MCCs 'Network and Internet', and rebooted both machines - the NAS is listed in host definitions. The NAS is also shown in the MCCs 'Network Sharing' Access Windows (SMB) shared drives and directories but it is NOTshown in the Access NFS shared drives and directories. Searching for new servers does change this.
I can however connect to the NAS from both machines with [as root]

Code: Select all

mount -t nfs <IPaddress>:<pathto directory> <mountpoint> -wv

, however I would like the convenience of the graphical connection so that it will list as a 'device' in Dolphin for users.

Anyone got any suggestions as to where to look to try and troubleshoot this?

PS Didn't have a chance to check whether the command line for a cifs mount worked (I think it did but cannot be positive as I was fooling around with trying to get connections working so much last night ) before work today, but I also cannot get a successful cifs connection from the graphical interface [Network Sharing >>Access Windows (SMB) shared drives and directories].

Alittle more research and I found the answer between https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=207 and https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5472
