Re: OT: NFS and iOS -
I'm kinda coming into this discussion late. SMB is pretty universal, so if you want to simplify you can just serve over SMB. Windows, OS X, iOS, and Linux clients can all use it. For iOS I'm finding FileExplorer Free By Steven Zhang. There are some drawbacks using both SMB and NFS on the same directory: there are different file name limitations, so it's possible to be allowed to name a file via SMB, and then not access or delete the file on NFS; and vice versa. And I think xattr aren't possible with NFS. the data can be at pathtodata which would be a mount point for the brick it's stored on; and then # mount -B pathtodata smbshare # mount -B pathtodata nfsshare So you get different directories configured for SMB vs NFS sharing, but due to the bind mount the underlying storage is the same. Netatalk is an open source implementation of AFP (Apple Filing Protocol). Presently Apple OS X starting with version 10.9 (about a year ago) prefers SMB over AFP for file sharing. It still prefers AFP over SMB for remote Time Machine Backups as there are some features Time Machine needs that aren't available yet in SMB. WebDAV sounds like it's viable also, having the benefit of better performance externally (shares over the internet). I get a bunch of file size limitation results with Google, but all seem to be Windows (as host) limitations, not something inherent to WebDAV. There's also some speculation that internal sharing via WedDAV doesn't perform as well. But WebDAV's advantage is that it doesn't have ancient versions, all of which SMB is expected to fall back on. I've found Samba to be quite a bit more difficult to setup than either Netatalk or NFS. I haven't done a WebDAV setup yet but it sounds interesting. What I'd want to know is if remote modification is OK, rather than transfer locally, modify, transfer back to remote - that's a PITA workflow I think. Implies file locking is necessary. -- Chris Murphy -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

But on 10.9 it hangs when copying files with xattrs, with a totally obscure error message. It took days to realize it was due to xattr. On 10.10 I get different results, kernel panics. Otherwise I'd have suggested NFS across the board. Maybe there's a trick or two to get either NFS on the client or server to ignore xattr. It's almost always non-critical data; Apple embeds file type and a creator (or preferred application) code into each file rather than depending only on filename extensions. -- Chris Murphy -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
