1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility.

    Here's how to mount an nfs share:

    #cat /etc/systemd/system/mnt.data.mount
    
    [Unit]
    Description=nfs mount script
    
    [Mount]
    What=192.168.0.30:/mnt/tank/Media
    Where=/mnt/data
    Type=nfs4
    
    [Install]
    WantedBy=remote-fs.target

    I’ve always mounted network shares in fstab, what’s the benefit to doing it with systemd?

    (Also, for those of you learning, this method only works on systemd-based distros)

    [–] Still@programming.dev 7 points 2 years ago

    you can stop and start it via systemctl and systemd is going to make mounts for fstab entries automatically, I just put local drives in my fstab so that way I can copy mount files between machines

    [–] UntouchedWagons 5 points 2 years ago

    With these systemd mount files I don't need to touch the fstab, I can use ansible to copy the file, enable the service then start it. I can also have other services like Docker, Jellyfin or whatever to depend on that service. If the nfs share can't be mounted then systemd won't try to start docker.

    Systemd can retry mounting based on the restart policy in case you have an interruption.
