Step 2
Samba
- This seems to be the industry standard
- We would have liked this as it makes setting things up in Windows easier
- But then again we don't use windows.
- BUT we have never gotten it to work
- by working we mean automounting in fstab
NFS
- This is how we setup the servers at the MSGs to share files across the network
- It is very easy to setup.
- The following documentation is from our beloved Asus AC68(may she live forever)
- Plug in the USB drive
- We recommend ext3, ext4 or NTFS
- Turn the service on
- Put in the information as shown to share to one machine.
- Usually the one that will be making the backups
- In fstab add the following line
- 192.168.2.1:/mnt/travelbackup /mnt/samba nfs auto 0 0
- Don't forget that fstab need an empty line at the bottom of the file.
- Hit return a few times and save the file.
- run the command to mount all the shares
sudo mount -a
- Now the share will appear in Dolphin
- You can use rsync to backup to it
