I'm on SunOS 5.8.
I'm not sure of the exact terminology, but I want to make a "remote mount" from my server to another server. (Basically I want to create one of the mount points on my server be a shared volume that's on another server here). So if I do a df -k, I want to see all of the volumes on the server, PLUS the volume I connect to on the other server.
How can I do this?
Check out the Sun docs on NFS
Check out the man page for share, nfsd, unshare, mountd
Check out /etc/rc3.d/S15nfs.server, /etc/dfs/dfstab
Simply put your file system to share into /etc/dfs/dfstab - for security reasons, you should specify which system can mount it.
This shares out /opt2 to myotherserver with read/write for root account
share -F nfs -o rw,root=myotherserver -d "description" /opt2
This shares out /uu to any server with read-only
share -F nfs -o ro -d "some description" /uu
