This is an old revision of the document!
Add the NFS shares to the /etc/exports file
nano /etc/exports
/nfs_share 192.168.1.1/24(rw,sync,no_subtree_check)
Start the NFS and RPC daemons
chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/rc.nfsd
chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/rc.rpc
/etc/rc.d/rc.nfsd start
/etc/rc.d/rc.rpc start
Export the shares
exportfs -a
Check to see if the shares are being shared
exportfs
mount nfs shares
Client Setup
Create the mount point
mkdir /mnt/nfs_share
Start the RPC daemon
chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/rc.rpc /etc/rc.d/rc.rpc start
Mounting
On the CLIENT machine we'll cover 2 options here: manually mounting and auto-mount at boot
MANUALLY MOUNT
mount my.nfs.server:/nfs_share /mnt/nfs_share
AUTO-MOUNT AT BOOT Add the mount command to /etc/fstab
nano /etc/fstab
my.nfs.server:/nfs_share /mnt/nfs_share nfs rw,defaults 0 0
NOTE ABOUT AUTO_MOUNTING If you mount at boot and the server machine is unavailable, it will cause your client machine to take a long time to boot as the NFS client will make multiple attempts to connect and you will have to wait for it to time-out for each attampt.
