Linux and smb help. "Solved"

Featured Replies

Hello again,

I recently switched to Pop os from Windows 10. I am having issues with smb transfer speeds from server to Pop os 19.10. 60MB's seems to be the max, I can get on network transfers. My other windows pc transfers over 100MB's. I have checked all cables and connections. Ran server speed tests for max internet speed. I am almost positive the problem lies with Pop Os 19.10 and Ubuntu 19.04. I have tried both with same results

I am also have a ssd cache disk.

I couldn't find anything specific from googling it. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Have you tried using NFS instead of SMB with Linux clients?

I honestly, don't know how that works. Or how I can set that up. Leaving windows has been a learning experience. And I am still learning.

Could someone help point me in the right direction for setting up nfs on unraid and Ubuntu 19.10?

Edited by AinsWorth

For public shares, just enable NFS export, like you have for SMB:

For private shares you need to provide an access rule. Here's the one that works for me:

*(sec=sys,rw,insecure,anongid=100,anonuid=99,all_squash)

Thank you, for taking time to assist me. 

I am a noob when it comes to Ubuntu. 

Where would I put or use that line of code? And how would I access the shares from my Ubuntu PC. Most of the information I find with Google is complex and every post I find seems to assume nfs connectivity is common knowledge. 

Again thank you for your time and help.

You only need it for private shares. If you set the Security option to Private a Rule box appears into which you need to enter the code. Public shares are easier. I'd experiment with those first.

 

On the client you mount an NFS share using the mount command like this:

mount -t nfs tower:/mnt/user/name-of-share /mnt/mount-point

which is similar to how you would mount an SMB share. Note that you have to specify the full path to the mount (i.e. tower:/name-of-share wouldn't work) and /mnt/mount-point must already exist on the client.

 

To unmount the share you use either

umount tower:/mnt/user/name-of-share

or

umount /mnt/mount-point

Thank you, if I could buy you a beer I would.

mount and umount need to be run as the root user, so on your Ubuntu client you'll need to prefix them with sudo (and enter your password when prompted). So using my share M_Temp from the screenshot as an example, you would use something like

sudo mkdir /mnt/Shared_Media
sudo mount -t nfs tower:/mnt/user/M_Temp /mnt/Shared_Media

and you would access the share via the local mount point /mnt/Shared_Media

Just an update, I had to install "sudo apt install nfs-common" Followed by "sudo apt update". This is only nfs.

Secondly, I went to unraid terminal and input the following, "cat /etc/exports" and "exportfs -v". It took a bit for my shares to show up after changing share settings to nfs in unraid settings.

It then showed up and I was able to connect using "sudo mount -t nfs myip:/mnt/user/Media /mnt/Media". I used "$ df" to see if it showed up as connected in Ubuntu 19.10 terminal.

Lastly, I went into Nautilus and in other lacations I connected by this. nfs://myip:0/mnt/user/Media

I hope this helps, Thanks for all your help.
