    I was only guessing about latency, I don't have any special expertise here. I found this article https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/using-nfsstat-nfsiostat that might help debug further.

      @jdaviescoates Totally agree with this strategy. It could be interesting to chose a total different provider to achieve this goal.

      I configured for Wasabi seems to be fast and resilient. But I have to well understand user policy and permissions.

      When I use services like this, I'm always a little bit scared that folder can go public due permission problems.

      Agreed. I'm going to investigate https://teuto.net/teutostack-openstack-public-cloud/?lang=en who apparently do S3 style object storage, who I came across here https://social.coop/@aligyie/105385317039616213

        @jdaviescoates Take a look at S3 from IBM for 25GB/mo free at IBM COS

        p.s. I used to work on COS (formerly Cleversafe)

          @robi thanks but the added context not mentioned is affordable storage space that is also powered by 100% renewable energy.

              @p44 Did you get the issue sorted with the Hetzner Storage Box? I am facing the same problem and cannot work out why it is not mounting. "Samba Shares" and "External Reachability" are enabled but I keep getting the error 'mount: bad usage'.

                @ccfu Which Storage Box datacenter are you using? Source data is hosted on Hetzner, or on a different provider?

                  @p44 The Storage Box is in Falkenstein. The Cloudrons I am attempting to set this up with are also both with Hetzner, one in Falkenstein, the other in Nuremberg.

                    First of all, let's try to reproduce my working configuration:

                    On Hetzner:

                    1. Create a subfolder in root Hetzner Box Folder
                    2. Create a Hetzner Box Sub User (eg. sub1)
                    3. Assign Sub User to created subfolder
                    4. Enable Samba to Sub1 user

                    On Cloudron instance:

                    1. create /backups_cifs dir

                    Then, add this row in etc/fstab:

                    //u123456-sub1.your-storagebox.de/u123456-sub1 /backups_cifs cifs  uid=yellowtent,gid=yellowtent,user=u123456-sub1,pass=PASSWORD,iocharset=utf8,x-systemd.automount  0  0
                    

                    Where:
                    u123456 is the Hetzner Box ID
                    sub1 is the sub user name
                    PASSWORD is Hetzner Box given password

                      @p44 I'd recommend trying the instructions and mount code provided by Hetzner:

                      https://docs.hetzner.com/robot/storage-box/access/access-samba-cifs/

                      That's what I did and it's been working fine.
