Synology & NFS/CIFS

[undaunt]

I'm having an issue mounting my newish Synology to my Ubuntu VM. Basically, CIFS does not allow for true handling of unix chmod values and will simply stick with one default umask value for files and one for folders upon mount.

Eg: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/98707/how-do-i-mount-a-cifs-share-so-i-can-fully-control-the-mounted-volume-on-the-cli
Eg: https://linux.die.net/man/8/mount.cifs (file and directory ownership permissions section)

However, NFS requires that I change the UID and GID of the user to match that of the Synology user, or set up idmapd which requires NFS 4 (sure) but also kerberos, as it doesn't work properly for newly created files/folders via sys security.

Most files I'd be fine with just setting via 644 on CIFS, but files such as the traefik acme.json or others require nonstandard permissions. How are you handling this, or how are you mounting the Synology to the NUC?

Thanks.
