Answer:

NFS Configuration

Step-by-step explanation:

The Network File System (NFS) is a way of mounting Linux discs/directories over a network. An NFS server can export one or more directories that can then be mounted on a remote Linux machine. Note, that if you need to mount a Linux filesystem on a Windows machine, you need to use Samba/CIFS instead.

The NFS enables a UNIX workstation to mount an exported share from the server into its own filesystem, thus giving the user and the client the appearance that the sub filesystem belongs to the client; it provides a seamless network mount point.

Answer:

NFS configuration

Step-by-step explanation:

The Linux server runs the Linus open source operating system that provides a stable, secure and more flexible environment to carry out more challenging jobs like network and system administration, database management and web hosting.

The NFS or Network file system configured on the Linux server only supports Linux servers communication. It mounts the storage of the server on the network for central access.
