Centos – KVM permission denied on qcow2 disk over NFS

How is networking setup for your VM?
Is it bridged, meaning the VM has an IP directly reachable from your network?
Or is it behind NAT, which is what libvirt does by default? If it is NAT, your export line should look like:

<directory> <IP of the KVM Host>(rw,insecure)

The first change is that, instead of allowing access from the virtual machine's IP, you allow access from the IP of the physical machine hosting the virtual machine. This is necessary because with NAT the IP addresses of your virtual machines are translated to the IP address of the KVM host.
The second change is adding the insecure option, which is necessary for your NFS server to accept connections from a port number higher than 1024. This is necessary because when the KVM host does NAT it will use a port higher than 1024 for the connection.

Never mind I got it working with an SSH/SFTP program called core FTP server. Would still like to know why NFS didn't work.
