hey,

 

so i enable nfs on unraid, all files are default nobody id

 

i install ubuntu server on another machine, setup docker on tha machine that has the 1000,1000 for user and group (user is grey).

 

i create a directory in /mnt/grey then i mount the unraid share using the nfs mount command.

 

it doesnt mount and get user/permission issues, do i change the user/permissions for the shared folder in unraid, or must i chmod 777 the folder in the /mnt/grey directory on the ubuntu server machine? 

 

Ive had it working then it stops working, its sending me crazy.

 

 

example nfs share for unraid settings

*Note Unriad can't share Sub foldrs of a nfs share...

 

the folder share may need chmod and owner permission. nfs is linux permission based...

 

chmod 777 -R *
chown nobody:users -R *

 

On UNriad adjust nfs settings to match

 

192.168.2.253(rw,sec=sys,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash)

 

192.168.2.253 being the Ubuntu machine address to guarantee a secure connection...

 

this is the bare min for a secure nfs share...

next install the ubuntu nfs client and run the nfs connect command...

sudo apt update
sudo apt install nfs-common

 

use fs tab after testing the command to make a permeant mount at Ubuntu reboot.

-My unraid IP is 192.168.2.251...

sudo mount 192.168.2.251:/mnt/user/SHARENAME /mnt/LOCALFOLDER

Replace SHARENAME with your Unraid share name.

Replace /mnt/LOCALFOLDER with a local mount point on your Ubuntu machine.
Example: /mnt/unraid_share

 

after test the conecting..

 

touch a file echoe into the touch file cat the file remvoe the file ... to confirm... then setup fstab to auto mount..

 

nano /etc/fstab

192.168.2.251:/mnt/user/SHARENAME /mnt/LOCALFOLDER nfs defaults,_netdev,auto 0 0

example for fstab:

192.168.2.251:/mnt/user/media /mnt/unraid_media nfs defaults,_netdev,auto 0 0

test fstab:

 

sudo mount -a
