NFSv4 HOWTO
Hi all
We're experimenting with NFSv4, which is now included with Raidiator as of 4.2.19. Here are the steps we took to get it working.
1. Edit /etc/default/nfs-common to set NEED_IDMAPD=yes. This shouldn't be necessary by my reading of /etc/init.d/nfs-common but it seems to be required.
2. Edit /etc/exportfs to add "/export" and it's subdirectories, eg
3. Edit /etc/fstab to bind mount the exported folders to under "/export"
4. Restart NFS
While it's great that NFSv4 is now available, can I suggest this is done automatically when I set the share to be exported through frontview? Might save others a bit of work.
Cheers... Mike

"/export" *(rw,fsid=0,no_subtree_check,sync,no_root_squash,async)
"/export/media" *(rw,nohide,insecure,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,async)
3. Edit /etc/fstab to bind mount the exported folders to under "/export"
/media /export/media bind bind 0 0
4. Restart NFS

- I'll follow myself up here - this won't work, because my by-hand changes to /etc/exports were reverted whenever you unplug/plus a USB drive that is also shared via NFS.
Are there any Jedi-masters who can advise the correct way to do NFSv4? The OS will support it, but will Raidiator?
