NAME¶
mount.nfs, mount.nfs4 - mount a Network File System
SYNOPSIS¶
mount.nfs remotetarget dir [-rvVwfnsh ] [-o
options]
DESCRIPTION¶
mount.nfs is a part of
nfs(5) utilities package, which provides
NFS client functionality.
mount.nfs is meant to be used by the
mount(8) command for mounting
NFS shares. This subcommand, however, can also be used as a standalone command
with limited functionality.
remotetarget is a server share usually in the form of
servername:/path/to/share. dir is the directory on which the
file system is to be mounted.
Under Linux 2.6.32 and later kernel versions,
mount.nfs can mount all NFS
file system versions. Under earlier Linux kernel versions,
mount.nfs4
must be used for mounting NFSv4 file systems while
mount.nfs must be
used for NFSv3 and v2.
