Ok. Here is the situation, I have server A which need to access /tmp folder of server B. Can I mount NFS share (/tmp) from client (serverA)?please let me know

Yes if Server B is set up as an NFS server and /tmp is exported.

Since you want to access /tmp of server B you will have to set server B as a NFS server and server A as NFS client.

On server B share the /tmp directory using "share" command.
On server A mount this shared folder by specifying filesystem type as "nfs".
