rclone-nfs-docker

Warning

Note: This project will not be maintained further, as serving rclone mounts over NFS is now officially supported in rclone.

This Docker image mounts a remote file system using NFS and rclone.

Based on: https://github.com/nedix/s3-nfs-docker

Usage

Keep in mind that the following commands have only been tested on Debian 11, and might need to be adapted for other distributions.

• Run sudo modprobe {fuse,nfs,nfsd} on the host machine to load the necessary kernel modules.
• Make sure the kernel modules are loaded across reboots by running:

echo fuse | sudo tee /etc/modules-load.d/fuse.conf && \
echo nfs | sudo tee /etc/modules-load.d/nfs.conf && \
echo nfsd | sudo tee /etc/modules-load.d/nfsd.conf
