Simple Network drive, NAS

[gavinmc42]

I am a network drive noob.

I want to use an old  256MB model B as a simple NAS for Pikrellcam based cameras.
It is using an old but super reliable 128MB SDcard  to boot from, got heaps left.
Got a USB caddy with a WD 1TB purple.
Don't need samba or any Windows  connectivity.

How do I share this drive to all my Jessie Lite based Pikrellcam motion activated cameras?
I want to use this 1TB as the archive networked drive  for these Pi based  cameras.
Pikrellcams will be using cron to copy files to this drive once a day, different hours for different cameras.
Pikrellcam expects ext4 drives for simple setups.

1) How to setup the model B as a NAS network drive.
2) The settings on Jessie Lite to cp to this network drive.

I have set gpu_mem=16 to max out mem for Linux, waitusb=5 for usb drive start up time.
Can already see the drive and mount it as /mnt/sda1, formatted as ext4.
MC for some reason sees this drive as a 200MB?

Now what?

For such write-only copying that happens rarely, I would just use scp.

Why not start a nfs server.

What i can see. There are some old extension nfs-utils to make a nfs server.
You maybe contact the maintainer of this extension to ask to compile to newer version of tcl.

Hi curaga,

I guess I was making it too complicated, wood for the trees, duh!
scp, good idea, so simple, never used it before so it never occurred to me.

Hi patrikg,

I did see nfs-utils in some old posts but it was not in the current tcz list.

I will try scp first.
One line in crontab, and a few lines of shell script.

Thanks guys.
