[QNAP] NFS Guide now in Wiki

Ah, no.

Looks like some kind of conflict here.

[EDIT]

Okay, redid it all and it is working for both NFS and SMB but the change in /etc/init.d/nfs had been removed after the reboot. Not sure how or why.

Hopefully it will all still work again after my daily power cycle.

Just teasing...this is great! Thanks for putting it up there. Now all's we need is a few people using other NAS's to chip in too, and there won't be any more excuse for NFS problems from a NAS

ha HA! Now WE have pretty pictures too Thanks, barrmy!

Synology NFS Setup Guide

thanks for posting and the clarification on the other thread, canadave!

canadave ... did you mention that a reboot of the NAS deletes that changes? (at least where it applys) in the wiki?

Sorry, I'm not understanding...a reboot of which NAS? The Synology ones? And which changes are you referring to?

referring your wiki nas nfs howtos - you seem to suggest editing the /etc/exports file directly. I thought that i've read somewhere that these changes would be overwritten on each reboot of the nas (qnap or synology or both) no? Just wanted to be sure that this would be mentioned on the wiki then ... sorry if it is in already - i just hadn't the time to read it :/

ohhh, I see what you're saying, got it now--thanks for explaining.

No, the changes that need to be made to the Synology /etc/exports file (which do have to be made manually, unfortunately) aren't overwritten on reboot. I'm not sure about the QNAP, but I'd imagine it's the same.

Unfortunately not. After a reboot on the QNAP all the changes are lost.

This is a problem because I have automated shutdown every night with a restart each evening.

I wonder what is overwriting the changes to /etc/init.d/nfs ?

Oops I stand corrected! I'll add a caution to the wiki under the QNAP section. It's too bad that that gets wiped during a reboot.

I already told cranial (who did the qnap wiki entry?) multiple times that this wouldn't happen if he was using "/etc/config/nfssetting" for adding the insecure flag. But he doesn't seem to think so or i just googled wrong. :/

here is my post according to this:
