TrueNAS will make exporting file shares to both Windows (SMB) and Linux (NFS) extremely simple.

Right now my TrueNAS has a dataset exported over SMB to all my security cameras. My Plex Media is served over NFS and my personal laptop (Windows 11) has a folder exported to it from my backup server over SMB for my daily snapshots.

Hi,

Lets say I have a kubuntu desktop, a ubuntu file server, and a windows
desktop, how can I configure the kubuntu desktop and win11 desktop to
share files on my ubuntu file server?

ChatGPT says I should use Samba for both Linux and Windows.

What is the advantage of using a NAS like TrueNAS over SMB?

Thanks!!
Keith
