Network storage (NFS, SMB)

NFS (Linux/Unix-friendly)

Client-side mount example:

sudo mount -t nfs server:/export/data /mnt/data

Persistent via /etc/fstab (example):

server:/export/data  /mnt/data  nfs  defaults,_netdev  0  0

Common tools:

showmount -e server

SMB/CIFS (Windows-friendly)

Client-side mount example:

sudo mount -t cifs //server/share /mnt/share -o username=user

Persistent via /etc/fstab (example):

//server/share  /mnt/share  cifs  credentials=/etc/smb-cred,_netdev,iocharset=utf8  0  0

Tips

• Use _netdev in fstab so mounts wait for network
• Prefer credentials files with chmod 600
• Pay attention to UID/GID mapping for SMB mounts
