EXPORTS(5)
NAME
exports - specify mountable file systems
USAGE
/etc/exports
DESCRIPTION
The /etc/exports file contains a vertical list of left-justified file system names. On each line, following the file system name and separated by spaces, are the name(s) of the host(s) authorized to remote mount that file system. If a line contains a file system name and no host names, then any host can remote mount the specified file system.
When mountd(8c) processes a mount request, it checks /etc/exports for the export status of the file system and /etc/hosts to validate the hosts associated with that file system. A system administrator normally maintains /etc/exports and its ACL (Access Control List).
A pound sign (#) in the file identifies the characters to the right of the pound sign and to the end of the line as a comment.
EXAMPLES
