Re: Setting up NFS

The /etc/auto.misc example file on RH8 comes with examples of how to do this already.

Simply put,the format is this:

-fstype=nfs

i.e.

server -fstype=nfs fileserv:/usr/share

After doing this, and restarting autofs (service autofs restart), you should be able to "cd /misc/server", and be accessing the server "fileserv"'s NFS mount of "/usr/share".

Need more?
One long-haired git at your service...
