Mounting root
Hello,
How do I mount root on networked machines in Solaris 2.5 and 7? I did it before but I lost the clue. Was it something in vfstab? root=?
I want to give some machines or users rootaccess on other machines on the lan. Do I specify users or machines at the root is option?
Thanks in advance,
Albert.
