These services have one thing in common: they access data that is usually stored on a NAS. You do not want to store the data in the LXC itself. This is why NAS shares can be integrated into the LXC container as NFS or CIFS mounts in order to access external data.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/netguide.io\/linux\/de\/category\/proxmox\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Proxmox Category\">Proxmox<\/a> LXC NFS Share Mount<\/li>\n<li>Proxmox LXC CIFS Share Mount<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-5b327668 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"border-width:5px;padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Caution!<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Privileged containers run under the root user of the host system.
