exfat SSD with OMV (pi4 B) + NFS = problems

I wanted to mount an existing filesystem (exfat on SAMSUNG 2Tb SSD) via OMV.

I could see the disk ok, but when I created a shared folder I was told that there was a permissions problem which stopped it from happening.  I tried again, and the shared folder appeared in the drop down list.

Then I tried to share via NFS.  No go.  #The command failed to execute' (with lots of detail that didn't help solve the problem.

Work Around

No problems sharing an ext4 HDD, so I reformatted the SSD (I used ext4).  Everything worked beautifully after that.
