Thread: Export NTFS filesystem through NFS


i trying set nfs server computers on network can access server's files. there 2 hard drives on server, sda1, ntfs filesystem mounted on /media/win1 , sdb1, fat32 filesystem mounted on /media/win2. can export /media/win2 fine , mount client system. however, when run
code:
exportfs -a
error [/code]exportfs: warning: /media/win1 not support nfs export.[/code]
here contents of /etc/exports:
/media/win1 192.168.1.100(rw,no_subtree_check,async,fsid=0)
/media/win2 192.168.1.100(rw,no_subtree_check)
/media/book 192.168.1.100(rw,no_subtree_check)
here fstab entries drives:
/dev/sda1 /media/win1 ntfs-3g rw 0 0
/dev/sdb1 /media/win2 vfat rw 0 0
when comment out /media/win1 line of /etc/exports, server runs except fact /media/win1 unavailable. when uncommented, server seems work properly, clients unable mount anything. when run
code:
mount taft:/media/win2 /mnt
program runs without output forever (until stop ctrl+c). tried googling problem, couldn't find helpful. know how export ntfs filesystem on nfs? server running hardy.

quick answer can't. nfs expects find posix attributes in file system it's exporting (like permissions, etc.) ntfs doesn't have. fat32 doesn't have properties, either, doesn't care ownerships, permissions, , like, may possible nfs server ignore them in case. ntfs has security limitations incompatible nfs exports.

re-exporting nfs-mounted share complicated matter because of security restrictions. don't want give opportunity avoid permissions on file share exporting couple of times different set of usernames.

there reason why clients can't mount ntfs share directly on network?
