How to use exported file...

[piyush mathiya]

Hi Gurus,
I just went through Rafiq Raheman book & found that we can export directory as well as files. so how we can access a file which is exported in NFS server...
=====================
In Server...
=====================
# exportfs
/etc/passwd -ro

What should I do to use the password file in a client machine.

It is not a problem in production, just doing testing and to update my knowledge.

Thanks

I wasn't aware you can export files, only directories, file systems.

Once you export that filesystem, you probably won't be able to use that /etc/passwd as a password file, you can just look at it.

(Not sure if a symlink would work?)

What are you really trying to do?
