Nice, thanks. I even managed to share my USB disk formatted as NTFS. Basic steps: 1) install ntfs-3g in Proxmox. 2) test mount the disk, and after confirming it works, add to /etc/fstab (my mount command: "mount -t ntfs-3g -o defaults,nofail,gid=101000,umask=0002,windows_names /dev/sdb1 /mnt/toshibaUSB/") 3) add it as Directory Mount Point to the container (e.g.: "pct set 101 -mp0 /mnt/toshibaUSB/,mp=/data"). 4) in container, create group with GID=1000 and add every file server user to it. 5) share "/data" folder in the file server 😃

Excellent walkthrough but just an important warning about security... Careful not to set a super simple password for the CT and assume it asks you to change it in the little wizard - it's a totally different password (Samba root account) - and won't actually be changed. This first password doubles up as the Webmin logon, so set a proper password from the start. If you need to change it, drop into the CT console and do a 'passwd' reset.

Excellent video and walk through. After a bit of research on running a NAS like truenas or something similar on top of Proxmox, I decided I didn't want to go that direction. Truenas seems like overkill as I just need storage for a NAS and not all it's other capabilities. At first I did run it via a VM but to pass through the disk seemed a bit cumbersome and took away the disk space from my other VM's. So in the end, Turnkey seems like a simpler and more efficient use of my 20tb storage on my ProxMox server. Thank you very much for the video!

The Webmin interface would not let me change the /mnt/mydata permissions. In fact the whole right-click>Properties submenu was disabled. Strange since I was logged in as root with root:root ownership on the directory. So I switched over to the Web Shell interface, used the command "chown myuser:mygroup /mnt/mydata", and now the Webmin right-click>Properties submenu is fully enabled with no issues setting properties/permissions. Hope this helps anyone else who runs into this issue. Just change the above chown command to use the correct names of your owner (user name), group name, and directory path.

Great video thanks!. I did something slightly different but to the same effect - alpine Linux for small size and manual samba config from the shell ( because I like the pain :) ... Ah I mean the fun). I have a question to the drive you make for the data. A dedicated lxc mount point as you did will end up as a subvolume-ctid-something dataset in the host zfs. Yet I find it easier to distinguish LXC drives from custom created datasets by simply passing a prior created dataset. In my case I made a dataset called apps and used that as mount point to the samba share. And here is the issue.. if using subvol I can back up a snapshot with the rootfs and the data. If I use custom dataset I can only back up the rootfs. Any hints on how to resolve this? Even if it means separate back up task?

I could do container backup each night but that would take up alot of space as its full not incremental. Any way to backup that to the 5TB USB drive economically ? Would just limiting the backup to retain 2 backups be a better option while still giving me backup. Only issue I see is restoring a file means a container restore ? Anything built into Turnkey FS or Samba that might be better ?

Using a container like this gives you a web interface if you want to use that. Containers are also much easier to move between hosts if that’s something you want to do. If you want to setup a smb share on your host I’d generally recommend using the /etc/samba/smb.conf files as it gives you more options and seems to be better supported than the options on zfs.
