NFS seems artifically limited
Posted: 18 Sep 2021, 10:44
Hi,
NFS on these devices through the UI seems to be incredibly limited, I have init'd my new F4-210 device with 4.2.15 (which broke halfway through and whatever i've worked through that).
Now when using NFS I cannot find a reasonable way setup both rw and ro for separate hosts on the same share with TOS nor can I configure squash options?
I am trying to migrate from an existing setup on a QNAP nas to this Terra F4-210
Figured i'd ask here before I return this nas for something else, to see if i'm just not seeing the option.
I am looking to configure on a single share
- * ro access
- host 1, host 2, host 3 r/w squash_all anongid/uid
I took a look at /etc/base/nasdb which holds settings and seems to be used to generate /etc/exports but while i could insert records ok, neither the new hosts nor squash settings were made out to /etc/exports on nfs service restart
It seem like this is artificially limited in the implementation and if so this NAS is not fit for purpose for me.
Further to this i've been documenting my experience with this product here https://www.mameau.com/linux/nas/
fwiw cifs is not what i am looking for in this case, looking for 1:1 nfs drop in
If someone could advise that'd be great, thanks
