NFS

NFS, the Network File System, makes remote storage show up as a local drive. NFS is popular in Linux and UNIX based environments, and it also works on macOS.

The Files.com Agent connects your NFS mounts to Files.com. Run the Agent on any system that has NFS mounts to provide persistent connectivity to those mounts.
