How can I setup a NFS server to share with a whole network?
I have a solaris 10 system that is setup as a NFS server. The NFS clients have DHCP running. How do I setup the server, so that it allows mounts for any machine on the network?

DHCP should make no difference....

If you can share it from nfsserver
Code:
share -F nfs -o ro /shared_directory/path

You should be able to mount it from any UNIX/Linux host on your network:
Code:
mount -F nfs nfsserver:/shared_directory/path

Thank you. I will try that. I had set it up with

share -F nfs -o rw=machine1, machine2 /shared_directory_path

Since all the machines previously had static IP's and I could name each one of them. I did not realize that I could just give a rw option, without giving the machine names.

Appreciate the help.
