February 17, 20233 yr Hi! Usually I am mounting a share to Windows with SMB, which works fine. But now i have a special case. I need to mount a share to a Raspberry Pi and need support for file ownership, symlinks and read/write support. I tried to use SMB but it seems like the unix extensions are disable and I am not able to activate them for only one share. I have also tried NFS but with no luck. So my question is: What is the best way to mount a share (or parts of a share) to another Linux machine? NFS / SMB or something totally different?
February 17, 20233 yr Author Well, it turns out that the permissions you see in the mounted folder are not the same as on the server itself (when you are forcing them with file_mode and dir_mode). Today i learned. Now the root cause sounds really stupid, to be honest 🙂
