Re: Is there a better way to make a samba/nfs gateway? (Marc Roos)
Awhile back I thought there were some limitations which prevented us from trying this, but I cannot remember... What does the ceph vfs gain you over exporting by cephfs kernel module (kernel 4.19). What does it lose you? (I.e. pros and cons versus kernel module?) Thanks! C.
It's based on vfs_ceph and you can read more about how to configure it yourself on https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/current/man-html/vfs_ceph.8.html.
Hello Chad, starting with the Problems from lost connections with the kernel CephFS mount to a much simpler service setup, there are plenty. But what would be the point in stacking different tools (kernel mount, smb service,..) untested together just because you can? -- Martin Verges Managing director Mobile: +49 174 9335695 E-Mail: martin.verges@croit.io Chat: https://t.me/MartinVerges croit GmbH, Freseniusstr. 31h, 81247 Munich CEO: Martin Verges - VAT-ID: DE310638492 Com. register: Amtsgericht Munich HRB 231263 Web: https://croit.io YouTube: https://goo.gl/PGE1Bx Am Fr., 13.
