Nextcloud doesn't offer sftp or rsync access to users that i know of. The specifications are much simpler because they only deal with web access (the web interface and the webdav server written in PHP). How Linux is supposed to be used? That's why i'm here. There wasn't until kernel 4.19 an official limit to the number of mounts in the documentation. Even though we use mounts a lot, we're still far from the official limit. Did we get lucky for 15 years and we should change the way we do things or is it a bug ? I will now take this to the kernel team and see what they have to say about it. > Especially if you keep insisting on using a way that was never officially > supported, just because you got away with it for 15 years. That's the very question i guess! How much mount is too much mount ;) Thanks again for your help.
