NAME
mountd - NFS mount request server
SYNOPSIS
/usr/etc/rpc.mountd
[
-n
]
DESCRIPTION
mountd
is an
RPC
server that answers file system mount requests.
It reads the file
/etc/xtab,
described in
exports(5),
to determine which file systems are available for mounting by
which machines. It also provides information
as to what file systems are mounted by which clients.
This information can be printed using the
showmount(8)
command.
The
mountd
daemon is normally invoked by
rc(8).
OPTIONS
- -n
-
Do not check that the clients are root users. Though this option makes
things slightly less secure, it does allow older versions (pre-3.0) of client
NFS to work.
