Is there a way to mount FTP share to a folder without using disk Space?

Not sure.. that's a client-side thing, and it's beyond the scope of this forum.

There is no such thing as a "ZFS share". Not sure where you came up with that name..

SMB shares are CIFS. They are created in accordance with the FreeNAS manual, and mounted in accordance with your client's file system of choice(assuming it supports CIFS).

maybe i was expressing myself wrong.

what i want is to mount a share from another server onto my server for updating a Database only. its for reading the content of these folders. But when i try
(i said ZFS but meant NFS)
mount_nfs //(IPadress): Path /mnt/(oath to folder) i get Permission denied
where do i enter username and password

usage: mount_nfs [-23bcdiLlNPsTU] [-a maxreadahead] [-D deadthresh]
[-g maxgroups] [-I readdirsize] [-o options] [-R retrycnt]
[-r readsize] [-t timeout] [-w writesize] [-x retrans]
rhost: path node

There is no option on where i can enter the the credentials

with mount_smbfs i cant seem to get a connection becasue of a time out.


The Server is on a VPN tunnel with 25mbit but i have no problem getting data from that server at 2.5-3 MB/sec so speed is no issue here.

That's because NFS doesn't use credentials like usernames and passwords. ;)
