kubuntu getting nfs to share a ntfs drive
 
Hi I am currently running two kubuntu machines and followed directions from here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Se...72da720ce42696
and here http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/...rking/Easy_NFS.

I was able to successful map folders in my home directory between the two machines. What I would like to do now is also map a ntfs drive which I am using on one of my machines (/media/sda6) so that i can access it from the other machine. When I try this i get this error message:

mount: 192.168.1.100:/media/sda6/Nicholas failed, reason given by server: Permission denied

here is the command i typed in to get this message
sudo mount 192.168.1.100:/media/sda6/Nicholas /home/nicholas/test1

Does anyone have any suggestions? right now I think it is either an issue with permissions which are set to root but gives everyone all access, or simply because the drive is ntfs.
thanks

I don't think it's recommended to use nfs for sharing ntfs or fat filesystems. It's just a simple protocol for use on trusted networks of mostly homogeneous Unix-type systems, and it doesn's support the Windows-based filesystems very well. You should use samba for sharing those.
