NFS  Exports


Intro -  NFS is the system by which Linux allows other computers to mount and use parts of its intrinsic file system.  IT's regulated through a number of places.

	/etc/exports -  Specifies which parts of file system can be shared.
		Eg.  /usr/local/fred \
				128.128.128.128/255.255.255.192 (rw,no_root_squash)

	/usr/sbin/exportfs -  Reads /etc/exports and makes those files available.
		Eg /usr/sbin/exportfs -a

Note, you must exportfs your file systems after you've editted them!
