Summary
In this chapter you learned how to start and stop NFS servers, mount and unmount directories, and create and maintain the configuration files for clients and servers.
NFS, a rather straightforward tool, is one of the power features that lets you work not only with other Linux systems, but with other variants of UNIX as well. From a user's standpoint, it provides a seamless bridge between clients and servers so that they can keep to their tasks instead of trying to remember the drive letter for their home directory.
