The server has /exports/home making it available to your LAN. When your client saves into its /mnt/test/, files will be saved into the server's /exports/home/ > I guess it boils down to how do I tell NFS to store data in /home > instead of "/"? I've been looking at this and can't see what to > change, or maybe it can';t be fixed that way? One solution: Stop exporting that directory (so there's no confusion in the change). Move the current contents from /exports/home/ to /home/exports/home/ Change your server's details in its /etc/exports to the new location. Change your client's details in their /etc/fstab to the new location. Now, when clients write to their /mnt/test/, they'll be writing into your other partition, at /home/exports/home/ You may want to rename some directories to be less confusing paths. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 4.15.10-200.fc26.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Mar 15 17:14:41 UTC 2018 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
