Network File System (NFS) is a distributed file system protocol originally developed by Sun Microsystems in 1984,
allowing a user on a client computer to access files over a computer network much like local storage is accessed.

 

Configure NFS Server

Install NFS server components

sudo apt-get install nfs-common nfs-server -y

Create the nfs server shared folder, you can use an existing folder as well

sudo mkdir /var/nfs

give the mount point you just created liberal permissions.


sudo chmod -R 777 /var/nfs

sudo service nfs-kernel-server stop

sudo service nfs-kernel-server start




Open the NFS exports file where you configure the paths to share and their permissions

sudo nano /etc/exports

/var/nfs *(rw,sync,no_root_squash,subtree_check)

Tell NFS to read your newly created exports file

sudo exportfs


Configure NFS Client

 

sudo mount 192.168.180.180:/var/album /home/nishant/nishant/photo_frame/pics

sudo nano /etc/fstab

 

192.168.180.180:/var/album /home/nishant/nishant/photo_frame/pics   nfs      rw,sync,hard,intr  0     0

 

sudo nano /lib/systemd/system/mount-nfs.service
