[solved] How to setup nfs share to a NAS device

To cover all the bases:
On the Synology:

  • On the Synology server setup the shared folder / NFS permissions to include the server Pydio is running on.
  • On the NAS folder root I added a subfolder called base.

On the Pydio box

  • add a folder under /mnt called subfolder (for instance)
  • change the owner for both folders to the user that runs cells.
  • change the permissions on both folders to 777 you can trim these back after you get it working if you like.
  • In the Cells Console add a Storage / Datasource to use the folder /mnt/subfolder/base

Note that the first two folders are the mount point for the Synology on the linux box and the third subfolder is on the Synology.
Don’t forget that all these folders should be lowercase with no spaces.
