NFS HOWTO
I have put this HOWTO together from various sources which I will list at the end. I will discuss the process of setting up a server and using a client.
Getting the Packages
On Debian type systems you can install the the packages as shown below:
sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server nfs-common portmap
Configuring portmap
Do not bind portmap to the loopback. If you need to reconfigure the portmap run the next two commands to restart the servers.
sudo dpkg-reconfigure portmap sudo /etc/init.d/portmap restart
Configuring NFS
Edit the /etc/export file.
The following line will permit all 254 C class addresses on the private net to access this mount.
/home 192.168.1.1/24(rw,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,async)
This line will permit all 65534 C class addresses on the private net to access this mount.
/home 192.168.0.0/16(rw,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,async)
You must execute the following commands after any edit to the /etc/export file.
sudo /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart sudo exportfs -a
Installing Just the Client Software
sudo apt-get install portmap nfs-common
Manual Mounting
First make a mount point on your remote machine where you want this mount to be located.
cd / sudo mkdir -p shares/home
This will mount your /home directory to /share/home on the remote machine.
sudo mount -t nfs myserver.mydomain.org:/home /shares/home
You may not need the -t nfs in the above command.
You will need to restart the servers below:
sudo /etc/init.d/portmap restart sudo /etc/init.d/nfs-common restart
Auto Mounting
Edit /etc/fstab.
myserver.mydomain.org:/home /shares/home nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr
Look at the mount manual page for other mounting options.
To test you edit by typing in a terminal the following:
mount /shares/home
