====== NFS Mounts ======

You need to setup an [[:linux:server:nfs|nfs server]]

===== Configuration =====

  - add the [[:linux:server:nfs|nfs server]]'s name and ip to ''/etc/hosts'' on your client
  - add the client machine's name and ip to ''/etc/hosts'' on your [[:linux:server:nfs|nfs server]]
  - enable the ''nfs'' and ''nfslock'' services to start at boot
  - start ''nfs'' and ''nfslock''

===== Testing =====

To make sure the server is configured properly, we will test mount the nfs share:

<code>
[root@bender mnt]# mount -t nfs wspace:/shared/directory /mnt/directory
</code>

|wspace:  |The server we are connecting to (I have configured wspace in my ''/etc/hosts'' file)  |
|/shared/directory  |This is the shared/exported directory  |
|/mnt/directory  |This is the local mount point for the nfs share  |

If the above command worked, we are ready to add the mount point to our ''/etc/fstab'' to allow mounting at boot-time



===== Configure fstab =====

  - add the mount information to your ''/etc/fstab''\\ <code bash>wspace:/home/media      /mnt/wspace             nfs     context=user_u:object_r:nfs_t   1 2
</code>
  - reboot to test
