# Setting Up an NFS Server on Linux
## Update the package repository.
```bash
sudo apt update # For Ubuntu/Debian
sudo yum update # For CentOS/RHEL
```
## Install NFS server
```bash
sudo apt install nfs-kernel-server -y # For Ubuntu/Debian
sudo yum install nfs-utils -y # For CentOS/RHEL
```
## Create shared directory and set permissions
```bash
sudo mkdir -p /mnt/shared_nfs
sudo chmod 777 /mnt/shared_nfs # Adjust permissions as needed
```
## Configure NFS exports
```bash
sudo nano /etc/exports
/mnt/shared_nfs 192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash)
```
- rw: Read/write access.
- sync: Write changes synchronously to disk.
- no_subtree_check: Disables subtree checking for better performance.
- no_root_squash: Allows root access on the client (use with caution).
## Export shared directories
```bash
sudo exportfs -arv
```
## Start NFS server
```bash
sudo systemctl start nfs-server # For Ubuntu/Debian
sudo systemctl start nfs # For CentOS/RHEL
```
## Enable NFS server on boot
```bash
sudo systemctl enable nfs-server # For Ubuntu/Debian
sudo systemctl enable nfs # For CentOS/RHEL
```
## Open NFS ports for a subnet (Optional)
```bash
sudo ufw allow from 192.168.1.0/24 to any port nfs # For Ubuntu with UFW
sudo firewall-cmd --add-service=nfs --permanent # For CentOS/RHEL
sudo firewall-cmd --reload
```
## Verify NFS exports
```bash
sudo exportfs -v
```
## Install NFS client package
```bash
sudo apt install nfs-common -y # For Ubuntu/Debian
sudo yum install nfs-utils -y # For CentOS/RHEL
```
## Mount the NFS share
```bash
sudo mount server-ip:/mnt/shared_nfs /mnt
```
## Verify the mount
```bash
df -h
```
