Couldn't write a single line of code because I was troubleshooting network shares all day.

Turns out if you want to do dev you need to use nfs and not cifs

And even then you need to chmod stuff on the network server

Annoying

Take the unge, make the big switch to ZFS.

My network drives are running ZFS with arc2 and slog caches, we are on point 🫡

nfs is fairly easy to setup and use ootb on linux.

cifs/samba is only worth it if you need to access it from android or windows clients.

I have it setup, but can't actually execute .sh scripts unless I login to the network drive and chmod +x it

Unless I'm doing something stupid? Couldn't figure it out

Maybe a user permission issue? You're probably mounting with the user "nobody" which always has the permissions from "o" (other) on every file and directory. That sucks.

If the OS where you are mounting does not have the exact same username as the owner of the nfs content, you need some user id mapping.

Ok I didn't do any of this. Just set it up on truenas, definitely don't have same usernames

Great.. more troubleshooting 😂

Good luck 💪 Also, archwiki is your fren

And then you might as well just use smb cause Windows doesn't play nice with others

A WinDirStat type tool that showed the tree diagram of a drive but with chmod by colour would be very useful.

I never realized I needed this
