NAME
share (NFS) - make local NFS resources available
SYNOPSIS
share [ -F nfs ] [ -o specific_options ] [ -d description ]
pathname
DESCRIPTION
The share command makes local resources available for mount-
ing by remote systems.
If no argument is specified, then share displays all
resources currently shared, including NFS resources and
resources shared through other distributed file system pack-
ages.
The following options are recognized:
-o specific_options
Specify options in a comma-separated list of
keywords and attribute-value-assertions for
interpretation by the file-system-type-specific
command.
specific_options can be any combination of the
following:
rw Sharing will be read-write to all clients.
rw=client[:client]...
Sharing will be read-write to the listed
clients; overrides the ro suboption for the
clients specified.
ro Sharing will be read-only to all clients.
ro=client[:client]...
Sharing will be read-only to the listed
clients; overrides the rw suboption for the
clients specified.
anon=uid
Set uid to be the effective user ID of
unathenticated users if AUTH_DES authenti-
cation is used, or to be root if AUTH_UNIX
authentication is used. By default,
unknown users are given the effective user
ID UIDNOBODY. If uid is set to -1, access
is denied.
root=host[:host]...
Only root users from the specified hosts

will have root access. By default, no host
has root access.
secure
Clients must use the AUTH_DES authentica-
tion of RPC. AUTH_UNIX authentication is
the default.
If specific_options is not specified, then by
default sharing will be read-write to all
clients.
-d description
Provide a comment that describes the resource to
be shared.
pathname Specify the pathname of the resource to be
shared.
FILES
/etc/dfs/fstypes
/etc/dfs/sharetab

NOTES
The command will fail if both ro and rw are specified. If
the same client name exists in both the ro= and rw= lists,
the rw will override the ro, giving read/write access to the
client specified.
ro=, rw=, and root= are guaranteed to work over UDP but may
not work over other transport providers.
