Setting up NFS

NFS consists of:

Note: The procedures used in Neutrino for setting up clients and servers may differ from those used in other implementations. To set up clients and servers on a non-Neutrino system, see the vendor's documentation and examine the initialization scripts to see how the various programs are started on that system.

It's actually the clients that do the work required to convert the generalized file access that servers provide into a file access method that's useful to applications and users.

If you want to start an NFS filesystem when you boot your system, put the appropriate command in /etc/host_cfg/$HOSTNAME/rc.d/rc.local or /etc/rc.d/rc.local. For more information, see the description of /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit in Controlling How Neutrino Starts.
