Host Samba share options?

[brianv]

I'd like to save my VM backups to a Samba share. I used Datacenter -> Storage -> Add -> CIFS. I can create backups, all good.

My question: can we alter the samba options used to mount the share? I'd like to use the mfsymlinks option, for example. I tried:

cifs: share
        path /mnt/pve/share
        server omv0
        share share
        content images
        maxfiles 1
        username share
        options mfsymlinks

.. but it doesn't work and proxmox just deletes the "options" line.

Mount samba share as you need and replace 'cifs' storage to 'directory', pointed to samba share mount.
