Is sshfs an option? Unfortunately, I don't think you can put that into /etc/fstab, though...

Interesting. Though it does seem to to require your private key to be unencrypted...
Well passwordless. But you can put it on an encrypted partition.
Well passwordless.
Same thing in this context. But sure, an encrypted partition would work.
Would this be an ideal solution to share media from the NAS to the media server?
Dunno about ideal, but it should work.
It does have quite a bit of overhead, meaning it's not the fastest out there, but as long as it's fast enough to serve the media you need, that shouldn't matter.
Also, you need to either mount it manually on the command line whenever you need it or be comfortable with leaving your SSH private key in your media server unencrypted. Since you are already concerned with needing to encrypt file share access even in the local network, the latter might not be a good option to you.
The good part about it is, as long as you can ssh from your media server to your NAS, this should just work with no additional setup needed.
Thanks, I'll think more on this
NFS over WireGuard is probably going to be the best when it comes to encrypted file shares without the need to set up Kerberos. Just set up the WireGuard tunnel and export over those ips.
I never thought of using nfs over wireguard. Very nice.
This is a pretty good idea. Thanks
No problem. It should be wayyy faster than sshfs for the record. Both NFS and WireGuard are best in class tools.
That is wonderful to know
Maybe you can experiment Croc if you want simplest way.
I would like this for my media server, basically like a drop-in replacement for NFS shares. I still need it to be some sort of share instead of having to prompt it to send media across. Great project though, thanks
my pleasure..
cryptomator + syncthing.
I'd like this to be used as a share between my NAS and media server.
