Please install the following packages:

RR@RidgeRun:~$  sudo apt­get install nfs­-kernel­-server nfs­-common portmap

Modify the /etc/exports file adding at the end of this file the following line:

/home/ *(rw,insecure,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check)

For the above line, the directory /home will be exported (served by the NFS server).  If you would like a different directory, substitute /home/ with your preferred directory.

Restart the NFS server:

RR@RidgeRun:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/nfs-­kernel­-server restart
