HOW DO CREATE A NFS FILE SYSTEM

Answer Posted / sushil

Among the many different file systems that FreeBSD supports
is the Network File System, also known as NFS. NFS allows a
system to share directories and files with others over a
network. By using NFS, users and programs can access files
on remote systems almost as if they were local files.

Some of the most notable benefits that NFS can provide are:

Local workstations use less disk space because commonly
used data can be stored on a single machine and still
remain accessible to others over the network.

There is no need for users to have separate home
directories on every network machine. Home directories
could be set up on the NFS server and made available
throughout the network.

Storage devices such as floppy disks, CDROM drives, and
ZipĀ® drives can be used by other machines on the network.
This may reduce the number of removable media drives
throughout the network.
