I've read all the related questions but I can't make it work. On my ubuntu 16.04 server I want to mount an external vfat disk to share via nfs.
I have made a folder (/media/passport) which finally belongs to nobody:nogroup and anyone has full privileges but when rebooting the /media/passport folder belongs to root:root.
My client can see the nfs (as nfs://192.168.0.2/passport) but cannot proceed further (cannot read the folders and files in it).
The fstab file has the line:
UUID=THEUUID /media/passport rw,users,utf8 0 0
Anything I have read in stackoverflow promises to solve my issue but it doesn't work. Any suggestions?
EDIT
Changing the mounted disc to ext4 (instead of vfat) gives me the same results; I can see the nfs://server/passport but I cannot browse further. I have tried all possible options both in /etc/fstab and in /etc/exports.
