lishes this task in an efficient manner. It is really easy to configure as well. Unlike some other sharing protocols, NFS merely shares files and does not facilitate printing or messaging. 28.1 Software Depending on your distribution, the following programs may be located in any of the bin or sbin directories. These are all daemon processes. To get NFS working, they should be started i

that a number of services be running that have no use anywhere else. Many naive administrators create directory exports with impunity, thus exposing those machines to opportunistic hackers. An NFS server should be well hidden behind a firewall, and any Internet server exposed to the Internet should never run the portmap or RPC services. Preferably uninstall all of these services if you

e first step is deciding on the directory you would like to share. A useful trick is to share your CD-ROM to your whole LAN. This is perfectly safe considering that CDs are read-only. Create an /etc/exports file with the following in it: /mnt/cdrom 192.168.1.0/24(ro) localhost(ro) You can immediately see that the format of the /etc/exports file is simply a line for each shareable directory

Question

In linux, in networking, the NFS server has a config file called /etc/exports, with following content:

/mnt/cdrom *.mynet.mydomain.co.za(ro)
/some/folder 192.168.1.0/24(ro) localhost(ro)

what do each of the above columns mean (i.e. explain in detail all the columns in the first row/line).

Answer

Means /mnt/cdrom directory (of the NFS server) is being shared, and all machines in the mynet.mydomain.co.za domain can have readonly access to directory

Question

In linux, in networking, say you have an NFS (Network File System) server with fully qualified host name of nfsserver1, and you want to have access to its /some/folder shared directory. How do you do it (i.e. what command do you issue)?

Answer

mount -t nfs nfsserver1:/some/folder /mnt/nfs

^^ note we need to mount the share folder on the nfs server
^^^ note the use of -t flag to set the mount type to nfs
^^^^ note how we treat the share folder on nfsserver1 (i.e. nfsserver1:/some/folder) as any other device that is mounted
^^^^^ note the /mnt/nfs folder can be any mount folder you create (I am just useing /mnt/nfs as an example.

g the exportfs command with no options should then show /mnt/cdrom 192.168.1.0/24 /mnt/cdrom localhost.localdomain which lists directories and hosts allowed to access them. It is useful to test mounts from your local machine before testing from a remote machine.
