Unraid 6.12.0-rc6 Now Available
For exclusive shares, we've made an implementation change. Due to issues using bind-mounts with ZFS pools with internal nested child datasets, symlinks are created in /mnt/user instead.
For example, for an exclusive share named "myshare" which exists only on "mypool" this symlink is generated:
/mnt/user/myshare -> /mnt/mypool/myshare
This implementation is cleaner and provides the same benefits of faster throughput.
Version 6.12.0-rc6 2023-05-17
Changes vs. 6.12.0-rc5
- Use symlinks instead of bind-mounts for exclusive shares.
- Fix share rename when share contains space and is located on zfs pool.
- Share Edit: allow 1 letter names
Network Improvements:
- rc.docker - suppress ipv6 link-local address for docker0 and shim interfaces when set as ipv4 only
- rc.avahidaemon - let service listen on regular interfaces only which have an IP address, this includes the primary interface + set ipv4 / ipv6 support
- rc.samba - let smb, nmb service listen on regular interfaces only which have an IP address, this includes the primary interface + set ipv4 / ipv6 support (also for wsdd2)
- rc.ssh - listen on regular interfaces only which have an IP address, this includes the primary interface + set ipv4 / ipv6 support
- rc.inet1 - add iptables processing to bridge interfaces to make them operate similarly as macvlan interfaces
