Something is missing but it did not tell us what. Can you reboot your system and check following inside logs

journalctl -u nfs*

root@DietPi:/home/dietpi# journalctl -u nfs*
Failed to add filter for units: no data available

strange on my test system this is giving the log for all NFS services. Can you try to remove NFS and install it again using dietpi-software. Maybe good to reboot between removal und new install.

I did it twice :wink:
in the meantime I installed samba and it works without problem.
Thanks.
