How to share NFS drive content to web port 80 using apache ?
 
Hi All,

My goal is to provide file access through HTTP to all of my NFS shared drive that i dedicated for public access.

Is it possible to create a website using HTTP which list all of the contains of my NFS shared drive to the public ?

it is failed even just to showmount, in Windows i usually access it using \\10.2.2.50\Volume_1 on the windows explorer.

Code:
root@sv6:/etc/apache2# apt-get install nfs-common

root@sv6:/etc/apache2# showmount
clnt_create: RPC: Program not registered

root@sv6:/etc/apache2# showmount -e 10.2.2.50
clnt_create: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Unable to receive
Thanks.

FYI: this is D-Link DNS-323 NAS device.

assuming you can mount the device simply change the document root of your web server in either your apache2.conf or /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default to the mounted nfs volume

Once you have your Apache service up and running simply put a link in the document root to the nfs share directory.

Make sure your site is configured to allow indexes and following symlinks:

<Directory /var/www/html/site>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride AuthConfig Limit
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>

Or forget NFS and use WebDAV.

ah yes, WebDAV I almost forgot about that, thanks man for the suggestion, I'll try WebDAV protocol first and then back to NFS.

Cheers.
