Yes that's correct I think. I also use an NFS mounted NAS drive for my photos
and it is rock solid - no problems at all.
Samba mounts also worked fine provided I explicitly mounted them up via fstab
myself. Trying to use the automounter for the CIFS volumes was however a
complete pain with dt as half the time the volume wasn't visible (this was a
good while ago so things may have changed but I still recommend an explicit
mount).
Rgds,

Subject: Re: [Darktable-users] How to connect Darktable to a network drive?
Hi
I use NFS as well to mount my NAS, and have no problem with dt seeing it as a
local directory.
I'd think if the NAS was mounted via SAMBA instead, dt would just see it as a
local directory. Or am I missing something?
Best regards

I have done this using nfs shares.
