NFS Share on Windows 2008 R2 Standard Server

[epritchett]

Could someone tell me exacly how to setup an NFS Share on Windows 2008, so that it will work with Proxmox. It seems like no matter what permissions I give (even anonymous) Promox always give me a permissions denied error when trying to add a NFS Share. Thanks in advance.

you need to allow root access.

I have done it on Windows 2003 R2 this way:
- on NFS sharing tab - allow anonymous access
- on NFS sharing tab - click permissions button - add your machines, which will access NFS share and give them read-write access, change permission for ALL MACHINES - no access
- for the folder, you are sharing, give appropriate permissions for ANONYMOUS LOGON, so it can write/change data in the folder (try full control first)

This is not the most secure setup, but if all servers are placed on the same trusted internal network, I think it is good enough.
