Very interesting for developpers, but I am still searching for a documentation about systemd and nfs for non expert users.

- proaralyst 10y agoThe Arch Linux wiki has good documentation on Systemd: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd
- macawfish 10y agoI just switched to Arch recently, and only then became aware of systemd. I have to say (as an init scripting noob) that I appreciate how systemd scripts seem more naturally organised than init.d scripts. Having dependencies specified explicitly helps me to understand how the system works much more easily than cryptic directories full of numbered init scripts ever have.
- a3n 10y agoSame as you, recent Arch switcher. I've never been a professional sysadmin, just my home network. I've been enjoying systemd from a noob/amateur perspective.
- xaduha 10y agoI'd recommend NixOS, for non expert users. If you are interested in 'what' and not in 'how' or 'why', then declarative nature of Nix configuration will do nicely. It can be as simple as services.nfs.server.enable = true; services.nfs.server.exports = '' /export 192.168.0.0/16(rw,no_root_squash,insecure,no_subtree_check) '';
- psibi 10y agoAs someone who uses NixOS now and then, I disagree with you. Right now, NixOS itself is for expert users. The installation itself will be problematic for non expert users.
- aangjie 10y agoI can second that, I've tried installing it a couple of times and gave up after some driver/hardware issue. I like the idea, and the virtualbox environment works without any problems.
- xaduha 10y agoI'm probably past a point where I can look at things from beginner perspective and I also don't use graphic mode, so for me it was pretty straightforward, especially when using EFI boot. One thing I never configured before was wireless in Linux. In NixOS it was pretty much a couple of lines in config files, after that it 'just worked'.
- ChoHag 10y agoThe documentation for nfs for non-expert users reads thus: Become an expert user.
