# Mounting Network Shares in Linux
|
|
|
|
possible ways to mount stuff - fstab, autofs, systemd, docker volumes if its for docker
|
|
|
|
possible types of shares
|
|
|
|
* smb/samba/cifs - the most common share, support on all OS
|
|
* nfs - mostly used between linux machines, bit better performance
|
|
* iSCSI - the share is mounted as a block device as if it was really a disk,
|
|
great performance for small files
|
|
|
|
More on setup of these shares is in
|
|
[TrueNAS Scale guide.](https://github.com/DoTheEvo/selfhosted-apps-docker/tree/master/trueNASscale)
|

|
# smb/samba/cifs
|
|
|
|
[Arch wiki](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/samba#As_systemd_unit)
|
|
on samba systemd mount
|
|
|
|
* you will create two files in `/etc/systemd/system`
|
|
* one will have extension `.mount` the other `.automount`
|
|
* the name will be the same for both and it MUST correspond with the planned
|
|
mount path. Slashes `/` being replaced by dashes `-`.<br>
|
|
So if the share should be at `/mnt/mirror` the files are named
|
|
`mnt-mirror.mount` and `mnt-mirror.automount`
|
|
* copy paste the bellow content, edit as you see fit,
|
|
changing description, ip address and path, user and password,..
|
|
* linux command `id` will show your current user `uid` and `gid`
|
|
* after ther changes execute command `sudo systemctl enable mnt-mirror.automount`
|
|
This will setup mounting that does not fail on boot if there are network issues,
|
|
and really mounts the target only on request
|
|
|
|
`mnt-mirror.mount`
|
|
```ini
|
|
[Unit]
|
|
Description=3TB truenas mirror mount
|
|
|
|
[Mount]
|
|
What=//10.0.19.11/Mirror
|
|
Where=/mnt/mirror
|
|
Type=cifs
|
|
Options=rw,username=kopia,password=aaa,file_mode=0644,dir_mode=0755,uid=1000,gid=1000
|
|
|
|
[Install]
|
|
WantedBy=multi-user.target
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`mnt-mirror.automount`
|
|
```ini
|
|
[Unit]
|
|
Description=3TB truenas mirror mount
|
|
|
|
[Automount]
|
|
Where=/mnt/mirror
|
|
|
|
[Install]
|
|
WantedBy=multi-user.target
|
|
```
|

|
|
### Useful commants
|
|
|
|
`smbclient -L 10.0.19.11` - list shares mounted from the ip
|
|
`systemctl list-units -t mount --all`
