version 3 file sharing. NFS is used in UNIX/Linux environment.
♦

Synchronize write operation
– Use this option to enable or disable write caching
♦
Allow root's access – Use this option to allow or disallow access by root super user account
♦
Insecure - If you choose this option, it means only the port under 1024 can access, it
provides higher security
♦
Subtree check – Use this option to enable or disable subtree checking. A subtree check
happens if a subdirectory of a filesystem is exported, but the whole filesystem isn't then
whenever a NFS request arrives, the server must check not only that the accessed file is in
the appropriate filesystem (which is easy) but also that it is in the exported tree (which is
harder).
Accessing proNAS shares under Linux
For NFS share:
Usage: mount -t nfs x.x.x.x:/mnt/proNAS/volume/share /mnt/temp
Where:
x.x.x.x = proNAS IP address
/mnt/proNAS/volume/share = the complete path of the NFS share. You may use the
command "showmount -e x.x.x.x" to query the complete path.
/mnt/temp = local mount point on the client
For CIFS share:
Usage: mount -t smbfs //x.x.x.x/share /mnt/temp -o username=account,password=secret
or
mount.cifs //x.x.x.x/share /mnt/temp -o username=account,password=secret
or
smbmount //x.x.x.x/share /mnt/temp -o username=account,password=secret
where:
x.x.x.x = proNAS IP address
share = CIFS share name. You may use the command "smbclient -L x.x.x.x" to
query the CIFS share names.
/mnt/temp = local client mount point.
-o username=account,password=secret = the account name and password
