This workaround applies only to software version 1.1.11.32736. Please verify your software version under "Device Settings" before you continue!
The NFS configuration file is /etc/exports. With the EMC software, this file is actually a symlink to /mnt/soho_storage/config/exports. When you change the configuration of your NFS shares through the EMC interface, this file is overwritten.
In some circumstances, it's desirable to manually edit /etc/exports. For example, you may wish to enable the no_root_squash option. For security reasons, by default, a remote root user gets "squashed" to access the share instead as nobody. The no_root_squash option grants root access to any remote root user. (Use only on a completely trusted network!)
Unfortunately, after each reboot, the /etc/exports file is deleted and replaced by a symlink to the EMC-generated file. I created a script to prevent changes from being lost. Simply paste the following into a shell, and the necessary scripts will be created. Then you can edit /etc/exports without losing your changes.
Warning: Use this at your own risk. There could be bugs. I take no responsibility whatsoever. (If you discover a bug, then please fix it!)
# Script is coming
# very soon!
