NFS with encrypted ubuntu home directory

Question

I am having trouble getting NFS setup on with vagrant:

On my local machine I have installed NFS:

apt-get install nfs-common nfs-kernel-server

And in my Vagrantfile set it to be used:

config.vm.share_folder("v-root", "/vagrant", ".", :nfs => true)

On vagrant up I get:

exportfs: /home/<user>/path/to/dir does not support NFS export

Mounting NFS shared folders failed. This is most often caused by the NFS
client software not being installed on the guest machine. Please verify
that the NFS client software is properly installed, and consult any resources
specific to the linux distro you're using for more information on how to
do this.

Am I missing a step or two here?

I'm aware of some issues with ubuntus encrypted home folders and NFS but I understand this is only meant to be a problem before boot.

[update] my /etc/exports file looks like this:

# VAGRANT-BEGIN: 5af3e5d6-b086-416d-8eab-987275445634
/home/<user>/path/to/dir 192.168.33.11(rw,no_subtree_check,all_squash,
anonuid=1000,anongid=1000,fsid$
# VAGRANT-END: 5af3e5d6-b086-416d-8eab-987275445634

Solution

Actually is not possibile to export anything via NFS inside an ecryptfs volume. exportfs: Warning: /home/user/share does not support NFS export

Does the machine on which you're working have the NFS client software as well? Is nfs-common (not just nfs-kernel-server) installed?

[Admin]

Yes nfs-common is also installed

My setup works well when not in the home directory.

Not sure if it matters much, but how is your /home mounted, which filesystem, and is /home a symlink?

I'm not sure - whatever defaults on ubuntu 12.04?
