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; it
also 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(8C) (using
/etc/inetd.conf).
Note that portmap(8C) MUST be running or mountd will not
work.
