exports file

The /etc/exports file is used to configure the directories for NFS. When the exportfs -a command is run it exports the directories listed so they can be mounted on NFS clients.

Each line exports a single directory, according the the networks and options listed.

/depot/shared 172.16.0.0/255.255.0.0(rw,async,fsid=0)
/depot/shared 172.28.0.0/255.255.0.0(rw,async,no_root_squash)
/home 172.16.0.0/255.255.0.0(rw,async,no_root_squash)
/home 172.28.0.0/255.255.0.0(rw,async,no_root_squash)

In the example the /depot/shared direcotry is exported to the 172.16 and 172.28 networks with teh options listed.
