NFS configuration

Hello,

I have a WD My Cloud ex2 with Firmware Version : 5.22.113.
For my Docker Swarm I’d like to use NFS shares instead of CIFS, because many services will fail if they are running on a CIFS share (for the locks on files and so on) but I’m not able to change the configuration of the NFS sharing to match my uid and gid.
No matter what I do I end up always getting uid and gid of nobody users on WD (501:1000) and I can create new files on the shares, delete them but I cannot edit the files, therefore for example containers that uses sqlite fails.
Are there some configurations that I’m not aware of? I’m one step closer to smash everything into piecess -.-

thanks
BR

You may want to ask your question (or move your post/thread) to the dedicated EX Series subforum were users more familiar with the EX Series devices may be able to assist.

Edit to add: A search of the OS5 subforums brings up the following discussion that may be relevant. One user notes that their changes at the root level doesn’t survive a reboot (common problem with v2.x and v5.x firmware).
