     NAME
          mountd - NFS mount request server

     SYNOPSIS
          /usr/etc/rpc.mountd

     DESCRIPTION
          mountd is an RPC server that answers file system mount re-
          quests.  It reads the file /etc/exports, described in ex-
          ports(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 informa-
          tion can be printed using the showmount(1M) command.

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