Hey guys, I am very amateur. I have spent a long time trying to get NFS to work. I seem to have read only access. My question is, how can I create an NFS share that I can edit from my client machines??
My objective:
- Create an NFS share that anyone on my wifi network can read and modify
What I did on the NAS:
- Purchased a FreeNAS mini E+
- Connected it to my router and turned it on
- Inserted a single drive (at this stage, cause still playing) and configured it with the only raid option I had (single disc)
- Created a Pool called "ExprimentPool"
- Went to "Shares -> NFS" and created a share with path "/mnt/ExperimentPool". I also ticked the "All dirs" check box.
Then I tried to set up a Linux client using the following command:
- sudo mount -t nfs 192.168.42.240:/mnt/ExperimentPool /home/freddy/ExperimentPool
It appears to mount, I can see the share but I can't edit it!!
Then I tried on a Mac client. Again I can see the share but when I try to edit it I am asked for a username and password. Can anyone help me make it so that I can gain read and write access to this share?
