Hi, I have been trying to enable my R7800 with Voxel FW (V1.0.2.75.2SF) on it to export my external USB drive via NFS, and so far I am not having much luck. Has anyone in this community done it successfully and is willing to share?

Here is what I have been able to do so far:
  1. Install Voxel Firmware + Kamoj Addon V5
  2. Enabled SSH access and installed Entware as per Voxel's readme
  3. I think I opened the NFS ports (111, 2049) using the directions from the Readme.
  4. Installed nfs-kernel-server and rpcbind, I even tried installing unfs3 package.
It seems that rpcbind is working correctly:
Code:
root@R7800:/tmp/mnt/sda1/entware/etc/init.d$ ./S19rpcbind check
 Checking rpcbind...              alive.
root@R7800:/tmp/mnt/sda1/entware/etc/init.d$ ./S19rpcbind restart
 Shutting down rpcbind...              done.
 Starting rpcbind...              done.

root@R7800:/tmp/mnt/sda1/entware/bin$ ./rpcinfo
   program version netid     address                service    owner
    100000    4    local     /opt/var/run/rpcbind.sock -          superuser
    100000    3    local     /opt/var/run/rpcbind.sock -          superuser
    100005    1    udp       0.0.0.0.151.204        -          superuser
    100005    1    udp6      ::.189.153             -          superuser
    100005    2    udp       0.0.0.0.171.102        -          superuser
    100005    2    udp6      ::.214.186             -          superuser
    100005    3    udp       0.0.0.0.179.185        -          superuser
    100005    3    udp6      ::.164.169             -          superuser

When I try to look at the nfs-kernel-server package it is looking for portmap (which I think is a precursor to rpcbind), maybe there is a newer version of it which works with rpcbind?
Code:
./S57nfs-kernel-server check
Error: portmap not started

unfs3 seems dead as well:
Code:
root@R7800:/tmp/mnt/sda1/entware/etc/init.d$ ./S56unfsd check
 Checking unfsd...              dead.
root@R7800:/tmp/mnt/sda1/entware/etc/init.d$ ./S56unfsd start
 Starting unfsd...              failed.

At this point, any pointers or help would be appreciated.
