Mounting nfs shares inside docker container

Question

Does anyone know how to mount nfs share inside docker container with centos base image? I\'ve tried this command:

mount server:/dir /mount/point

Answer 1

By adding --cap-add sys_admin flag to client container wasn't enough for me. I was getting error:

mount.nfs: mount(2): Permission denied
mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 1.2.3.4:/exports

After hours of research I've found that it looks like full privilege --privileged is needed to mount correctly inside docker container ..

Also don't forget to install necessary nfs client packages inside your docker container. On debian based containers:

apt-get install -y nfs-common
