Thanks for the reply; all great info. So I was able to learn more about NFS but
still have a problem.

First, on my BBS Raspberry Pi machine I added a line for the NFS in /etc/fstab
and mounted the NFS, lickety split. Now on new reboots the NFS mounts
automatically. Perfect.

However, on a Manjaro machine I'm having issues... 
First, when I mount the NDS without using fstab, it works perfectly. I can
mount the share and access it like normal. I use another .sh script to umount
it and that works too. However...

When I add the NFS line in fstab and try to mount the NFS, I get 'mount.nfs
failed to prepare: Mount operation not permitted.'. It won't mound the dang NFS
share. I'm on OMV 5 and the nfs-utils is the newest version. I did see some
info on google about nfs-utils needing to be an older version, but I haven't
went down that rabbit hole yet, thinking that doesn't sound right.

Any ideas??? Hmph. Again, I know I'm doing everything correctly - like syntax
and all - because on my BBS Pi machine the NFS mounts thru fstab just fine.

Hmmmm.
