+===== NFS Server =====
+The built in NFS server allows you to create and modify fileshares to NFS clients (mainly Un*x like systems). Network File System (NFS) is a distributed file system protocol originally developed by Sun Microsystems which allows users on a client computer to access files over a computer network, similar to the way local storage is accessed.
+It's essentially the equivalent of samba in a Linux environment.
+ \\ {{:pasted:20220118-210028.png}}\\  \\ **Enable NFS Server** - Sets the NFS server process to start at boot time.
+**Enable legacy (NFS V2) support** - NFS currently has 3 versions - NFS 2/3/4. FreshTomato defaults to v3, but it can also be set to "speak" v2 also.\\  \\
+**Exports**\\ {{:pasted:20220118-210434.png|Exports}}\\  \\ **Directory** - This specifies the filesystem location to be shared.
+**IP Address/Subnet** - Limits connectivity to the IP address/subnet you specify in this field.
+**Access** - Defines the share permissions (how the share can be accessed)
+  * Read-only
+  * Read/Write
+**Sync/Async** - when set to Sync (Synchronous), the FreshTomato will only acknowledge data after it's been written out. The Async(hronous) setting configures for the opposite behaviour. The NFS server will acknowledge data before it's committed to disk, which can lead to data corruption if the server crashes.
+**Subtree_check** - Helps when one folder is exported but one or more of the subfolders is not.
+**Other_options** - Here you can specify advanced options. Please refer to the official NFS documentation for additional details. \\ [[https://linux.die.net/man/5/nfs|NFS man(ual) page]]
