Problem with external NFS on OpenMediaVault

@Uncle-Frank
yes, I already noticed that during the previous tests I’ve made, I was always able to mount /export/images/dev like if it was an export even if it wasn’t configured as one in the OMV server. I guessed it somehow inherited the possibility to be exported by its parents directories, but as I said I’m far from being an expert about NFS.

Should we mark this solved or is it still an issue for you?

I got it working so for me it could be marked as solved, thanks!

I made some tests with a “forced” configuration (meaning I actually bypassed the GUI of OMV) and everything worked

Not forced, simply a manual configuration.

The OS doesn’t care what the GUI says. The OS is going to read the /etc/exports file for exports, that’s how it works.
