MOUNTD(8C)              COMMAND REFERENCE              MOUNTD(8C)



NAME
     mountd, rpc.mountd - NFS mount request server

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/etc/rpc.mountd

DESCRIPTION
     The program mountd is an RPC (Remote Procedure Call) server
     that answers file system mount requests. It reads the file
     /etc/exports, described in exports(5), to determine which
     file systems are available to which machines and users and
     provides information as to which clients have file systems
     mounted.  This information can be printed using the
     showmount(8) command.

     The mountd daemon is normally invoked by inetd(8n) (using
     /etc/inetd.conf).

     Note that portmap(8c) MUST be running or mountd will not
     work.

SEE ALSO

     and showmount(8).
