Adding NFS Users




Add the hostname of the client you want to be able to access your NFS server to /etc/exports. To list the current allowed users:

[root@mondo log]# exportfs
/share          u-1.signalq.com
/share          srv-3.signalq.com
/share          srv-44.signalq.com

After adding the name to /etc/exports:

[root@mondo log]# exportfs -a

We added housey, now:

[root@mondo log]# exportfs
/share          u-1.signalq.com
/share          srv-3.signalq.com
/share          housey.signalq.com
/share          srv-44.signalq.com

For more info on exportfs, see the manpage here.
