Hello, thanks for your great how-to :) As I run my ubuntu server on Hyper-V and I have a NAS, and wish I could use it for cache the data. Can you tell me how to do this ? I have NFS share. Thank you

I haven't tried a setup like this but I imagine you could move the lan-cache-docker/data/cache directory somewhere temporarily, then mount your NFS drive to lan-cache-docker/data/cache, and then move the contents of cache back (so that they end up on the share. You'd need to do that while the containers were down, and then bring them back up afterwards.

my ubuntu server is on hyper-V and I'm using it for cache all my games. So I type "sudo mount 192.168.2.111:/volume1/gamecache/cache lan-cache-docker/data/cache" and I start all docker containers, but nginx keeps restarting. Do you have any idea why it restarts ? thank you

by default, caching steamgames are working flawlessly 👍 but when I try to mount my nfs folder to the docker cache, I dont have the same result. I'm trying to dig what I did wrong
