nfs sharing a usb drive?
#1

ComputerA has a usb drive /dev/sdc1 - either fat32 or ntfs.

 

I mount it as

/dev/sdc1 on /ext/c1 type ntfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,umask=000)

 

all user on ComputerA can access it.

 

My /etc/exports has:

/ext 192.168.0.0/24(async,no_subtree_check,rw)

 

ComputerB has mounted:

ComputerA:/ext on /ext type nfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,addr=192.168.0.7)

 

no one on B can see files in /ext/c1 - it is like nfs isn't aware that a drive is mounted on 'c1'.

 

How do I provide nfs access to these usb/firewire drives?

 

The man page for exports mentions the nohide option, which makes it work for one client - but this did not work for me.

I guess I'll try a share for each drive

 

I figured nfs would abstract the file system types out of it. Maybe samba is a better choice?
