Would it be possible to use Thinlinc’s NFS through nautilus?

I did the installation:

**Network File System Support**  
The Local Drive Redirection feature requires that your system can act as  
an NFS client.  
The necessary packages can be installed automatically by this wizard, or  
you can install them manually and restart the wizard.  
Automatically install the necessary packages [Yes/no]?yes  
Resolving packages and dependencies… done.  
The following packages will be installed:  
nfs-common-1:2.6.4-3ubuntu5.amd64

However, I don’t know how to connect 😅

Hi @Deluxe,

The script at `/opt/thinlinc/bin/tl-mount-localdrives` should run automatically when your session is created. This will mount any paths exported in the client settings to a folder called `thindrives` in the user’s home directory. See:

[https://www.cendio.com/resources/docs/tag/redir\_drives.html](https://www.cendio.com/resources/docs/tag/redir_drives.html)

In other words, you shouldn’t have to mount it manually using Nautilus. If you are reconnecting to an existing session, you can also run the `tl-mount-localdrives` command manually in a terminal.

Hope that helps.
