Share file-systems the Unix/Linux way with NFS

Share file-systems the Unix/Linux way with NFS

I know a lot of people use other methods to share drives and folders between computers, including SMB (via SAMBA), but most often the right/best way is with the Network File System (NFS).

With NFS you can mount a drive or folder from your Linux server to a folder on your Linux PC (or other NFS supporting device). This makes for a seamless method of file sharing that also retains all the the native security and access control features of native Linux file systems. Like owner, group, and permissions information.

Take a look and learn NFS.
