System Administration Commands                         mountd(1M)



NAME
     mountd - server for NFS mount requests and NFS access checks

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/lib/nfs/mountd [-v] [-r]

DESCRIPTION
     mountd is an RPC server that answers requests for NFS access
     information  and  file  system  mount requests. It reads the
     file /etc/dfs/sharetab to determine which file  systems  are
     available  for mounting by which remote machines. See share-
     tab(4). nfsd running on the local server will contact mountd
     the first time an NFS client tries to access the file system
     to determine  whether  the  client  should  get  read-write,
     read-only, or no access. This access can be dependent on the
     security mode used in the remoted procedure  call  from  the
     client. See share_nfs(1M).

     The command also provides information as to what  file  sys-
     tems  are  mounted by which clients. This information can be
     printed using the showmount(1M) command.

     The mountd daemon is automatically invoked by share(1M).

     Only super user can run the mountd daemon.

OPTIONS
     The options shown below are supported for NVSv2/v3  clients.
     They are not supported for Solaris NFSv4 clients.

     -r       Reject mount requests from  clients.  Clients  that
              have file systems mounted will not be affected.



     -v       Run the command in verbose mode. Each  time  mountd
              determines what access a client should get, it will
              log the result to the console, as well  as  how  it
              got that result.



FILES
     /etc/dfs/sharetab       shared file system table

     sharetab(4), attributes(5)

NOTES
     Since mountd must be running for nfsd to function  properly,
     mountd      is      automatically     started     by     the
     svc:/network/nfs/server service. See nfs(4).

     Some routines  that  compare  hostnames  use  case-sensitive
     string  comparisons;  some  do  not.  If an incoming request
     fails, verify that the case of the hostname in the  file  to
     be  parsed  matches the case of the hostname called for, and
     attempt the request again.
