Name
       mountd - NFS mount request daemon

Syntax
       /etc/mountd [-i] [-d] [-s]

Description
       The daemon must be run on NFS servers to process NFS mount protocol requests.  It reads the file to determine which file systems and direc-
       tories are available to which machines and users, and makes this information available to the operating system.	The machine  names  listed
       in  the	file may optionally contain the local BIND domain name.  For more information on BIND, see the Guide to the BIND/Hesiod Service To
       see which clients have file systems or directories mounted, use the command.

Options
       -d If you are running the BIND/Hesiod service, after checking the Internet address, will verify that the host requesting a mount or unmount
	  is in the server's domain.

       -i Turns  on  verification  of the Internet address of the client against the server's database for mounts and unmounts.  The default is no
	  address verification.

       -s If you are running the BIND/Hesiod service, after checking the Internet address, will verify that the host requesting a mount or unmount
	  is in the server's subdomain.
