Random NFS Notes

OS X: mount like any other share: mount server:/some/dir /dir

If needed, add "insecure" to server's /etc/exports:

mac:/media root# mount -v server:/home/media /media
mount_nfs: /media: Operation not permitted

After adding "insecure" to server's /etc/exports and running exportfs -ra

mac:/media root# mount -v server:/home/media /media
server:/home/media on /media

Linux: Verify exports with

[root@linux]# rpcinfo -p (and check for mountd, portmapper, nfs in the list)
[root@linux]# exportfs -ra
[root@linux]# exportfs
/home/media     192.168.0.2
[root@linux]# cat /etc/exports
/home/media 192.168.0.2(rw,sync,insecure)

OS X - query a server for NFS exports - here 0.3 is the NFS client..

mac:~ $ showmount -e 192.168.0.2
Exports list on 192.168.0.2:
/home/media                        192.168.0.3
