the NFS server. The Open Network Computing External Data Representation (ONC-XDR) protocol ensures portable data transmission between NFS clients and the NFS server.

You can use the NFS Service to manage NFS Client Groups, NFS Locking, and NFS User and Group mappings. NFS Shares, however, are created from the Folders and Shares section of the Web UI. See the following topics for more information:

Network Protocol Overview: NFS

With the NFS Service, a DataSafe NAS can act as a Network File System (NFS) server. Users can then share files in a mixed environment of computers, operating systems, and networks.

Users on computers running NFS client software can gain access to files (called shares) on the DataSafe NAS by connecting (mounting) those files to their computers. From the viewpoint of the user on a client computer, the mounted files are indistinguishable from local files.

The NFS Service uses the Open Network Computing remote procedure call (ONC RPC) protocol to implement the NFS protocol. The NFS Service also
