hi All,

This is the first time that i would be doing a NFS mount.
Its solaris 10 machine on which i would be doing this.
Can any of you gurus help me with the steps that should be taken.

Do you have to share also from server or only you have to mount the shared file to local system.

If you know the IP address of server which is going to work as file server and the directory which is shared, all you need to do is on the local system execute mount with following option

#mount –F nfs ip:/<directory> <localmountpoint>

Or even simpler if you didn't disabled the automounter, just use:
/net/server-ip-or-hostname/directory
