NFS stands Network File System and is the venerable protocol protocol used by Unix.

Well, I tested this myself and with AFP shares, bad things did happen :-( Use NFSīut, with a little help from my friends (thank you, Bogdan!), I migrated the calibre library to a NFS share, and had no problems since.

Network drives are problematicĭo not put your calibre library on a networked drive. This led to the necessity of storing the library on a file server, and accessing it from my laptop. My library is pretty large, and keeping it entirely on my laptop is not reasonable. Calibre is not exactly the program that will win a beauty contest, but functionally it is ok.
