NAME

       rmtab - remote mounted file system table

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/rmtab

DESCRIPTION

       rmtab  contains	a  table of filesystems that are remotely mounted by NFS clients. This file is maintained by mountd(1M), the mount daemon.
       The data in this file should be obtained only from  mountd(1M) using the MOUNTPROC_DUMP remote procedure call.

       The file contains a line of information for each remotely mounted filesystem. There are a number of lines of the form:

       hostname:fsname

       The mount daemon adds an entry for any client that successfully executes a mount request and deletes the appropriate entries for an unmount
       request.

       Lines  beginning  with a hash (' #') are commented out. These lines are removed from the file by mountd(1M) when it first starts up.  Stale
       entries may accumulate for clients that crash without sending an unmount request.

FILES

NAME

       showmount - show remote mounts

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/showmount [-ade] [hostname]

DESCRIPTION

       showmount  lists  the clients that have remotely mounted a filesystem from host. This information is maintained by the mountd(1M) server on
       host, and is saved across crashes in the file /etc/rmtab. The default value for host is the value returned by hostname(1).

       The showmount command does not display the names of NFS Version 4 clients.

OPTIONS

       -a    Print all remote mounts in the format:

	     hostname : directory

	     where hostname is the name of the client, and directory is the root of the file system that has been mounted.

       -d    List directories that have been remotely mounted by clients.

       -e    Print the list of shared file systems.

FILES

       /etc/rmtab
