Not sure if this is possible but I thought I would ask anyways. I plan on setting up numerous V Mobdro Ms on my proxmox. With that in mind, I'd like to find a way to share the files both between VMs and to Samba server on a different in-network computer. Is that possible? VidMate

If you want to share files between VMs you need to use SMB or NFS. PVE got no buildin SMB-Server nor does the GUI supports managing sharing folders. If you already got a external SMB Server in your network you could use that with SMB mounted to the VMs.
 
Super low priority feature of course, but would be really great to see NFS come to the GUI.

Right now I'm using TrueNAS in a VM for lazy config of my NFS shares and I would like to not do that in future without sacrificing a GUI.
