I’ve finally got tired of how bad the latency and transfer speeds are when mounting my TrueNas SMB shares on my macbook. I looked online for some solutions, but didn’t really have much success with them. I managed to get to this command that seems to be a lot better:
mount_smbfs -o soft,nobrowse "//<username>@<domain or ip>/apps" "$HOME/mnt/apps"
where /mnt/apps is a directory that I created for myself. In this case I’m mounting a share called “apps”. For now it actually seems to be pretty responsive and loads directories and files at an acceptable speed.
Can you export the share as SMB and NFS at the same time? It’ll probably be faster mounted with NFS
I don’t know if I did something wrong, but NFS only let me see one at the mounted root level. I couldn’t navigate the directory tree
You might have to patch your nfs config; the default one supplied by Apple is using an older protocol. Run this and reboot:
printf "\nnfs.client.mount.options = vers=4\n" | sudo tee -a "/etc/nfs.conf" &> /dev/nullthank you!
You’ll need to export each volume individually I would expect, are you saying you could only see one volume?
no, it was weird. I could only see the folder I set up for NFS. for example, on folder media, I could see the subdirectories of music, movies, etc, but not their contents. Then if i set up NFS on movies I could mount movies send then see it. It was really weird
