File System - Remote or Local??

Is there a way to find if the file systems mounted on a AIX/Linux box is local or remote?

On linux (cannot say about AIX) you will see something like this in /etc/fstab:
Code:
muha:/usr4          /muha/usr4     nfs     defaults,intr        0 0
ebi1:/usr2          /nfs/ebi1/usr2     nfs     defaults,intr,nolock        0 0
ebi2:/usr2          /nfs/ebi2/usr2     nfs     defaults,intr,nolock        0 0

where nfs filesystems are mounted. nfs filesystems are remote disks.
