Enable Synology NFS

Supported: NFS

Unsupported: SMB / CIFS

CIFS appears to work under some circumstances, but we can't guarantee it.

Once NFS is enabled on your NAS, make sure to follow our Mount NFS Guide.

Step By Step

1. Follow Synology NFS Guide.

2. Next, read the Synology NFS Permissions Guide.

3. That's it! There are only two steps.

It'll look something like this.
