Issue:
Can I access networked file system mounts such as cifs and nfs via ftp?
Resolution:

Exporting networked file systems via another networked file system is not recommended or supported. The ftp server that ships with Red Hat Enterprise Linux, vsftpd does have an option that helps work around issues with ftp file transfers and networked file system mounts such as cifs and nfs. Place the following in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf

use_sendfile=NO

 

For more information on this option, see the man page for vsftpd.conf and sendfile().
