Dune HD Media Center App - NFS


Dune HD Media Center app has a built-in NFS client which allows you to connect to NFS servers.

Because of certified Android TV solution (and Google security requirements), NFS client uses so-called "non-privileged" port.

Because of this, it can connect only to NFS servers which allow connections from non-privileged ports. Many NFS servers allow this by default. If your NFS server does not allow it, you need to change its configuration. See below for the details.
