Install NFS Server
sudo apt install nfs-kernel-server
Configure NFS Server
sudo nano /etc/exports
Add/edit:
/path/to/be/shared *(ro,async,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check)
For the changes to take effect, export and start NFS service.
sudo exportfs -a
sudo /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server start
Pretty simple...
Connecting to the NFS Server
You'll need NFS installed
sudo apt install nfs-common
or
sudo apt install nfs-kernel-server
Then you can check what's shared from any particular machine:
showmount -e [ServerName or Address]
will show you what's shared from a machine
TBD
- Learn what flags do what in /etc/exports
- Browsing in the GUI would be nice...
- Look into automounting (including graceful failure modes)
