     NAME
          mountd - NFS mount request server

     SYNOPSIS
          /usr/etc/rpc.mountd

     DESCRIPTION
          mountd is an RPC server that answers file system mount
          requests.  It reads the file /etc/exports, described in
          exports(4), to determine which file systems are available to
          which machines and users.  It also provides information as
          to which clients have file systems mounted.  This
          information can be printed using the showmount(1M) command.

          The mountd daemon is normally invoked from /etc/inittab.
