EXPORTS(5)              COMMAND REFERENCE              EXPORTS(5)



NAME
     exports - NFS file systems being exported

SYNOPSIS
     /etc/exports

DESCRIPTION
     The file /etc/exports describes the file systems which are
     being exported to NFS clients; /etc/exports is created by
     the system administrator using a text editor and is
     processed by the mount request daemon mountd(8C) each time a
     mount request is received.

     The /etc/exports file consists of a list of file systems and
     the netgroup(5) or machine names allowed to remote mount
     each file system.  The file system names are left justified
     and are followed by a list of names separated by white
     space.  The names will be looked up in /etc/netgroup and
     then in /etc/hosts.  A file system name with no name list
     means export to everyone.  A `#' anywhere in the file
     indicates a comment extending to the end of the line it
     appears on.  Lines beginning with white space are
     continuation lines.

EXAMPLE
     /usr       clients               # export to my clients
     /usr/local                       # export to the world
     /usr2      phoenix sun sundae    # export to only these machines
