Hi Hick,
Quote:
To display the NFS handles offered by a remote node
Is this something which we are talking about share name for NFS mount point ?

Code:
# showmount <ip address of node

Should this command be run as root user ?

Regards,
Maddy

On NFS client, as root user, run

showmount -e <NFS_Server_IP>

the above command displays NFS shares exported by the remote NFS server. Then run below command as root user to mount it locally.

mount -F nfs <NFS_Server_IP>:<SHARE_NAME> /local_mount_point

If you have autofs running
Code:
service autofs status

and it has /net -hosts in auto.master, then you can browse /net
Code:
cd /net/nfsserver
ls

(This is a nice presentation. Behind the scenes automounter runs showmount -t)
