<header>Introduction to NFS Shares</header>

<include nfs>

<h3>Linux NFS</h3>
This module allows you to configure directories (called <i>exports</i>
in Linux) shared via NFS from your system. The first page
shows a list of directories and the clients they are exported to, allowing
you to click on the client to edit its options or start exporting
a new directory. <p>

Below the list of shares on the first page is a button which will
make the current configuration active. This is done by stopping and
starting the running NFS server processes. <p>

If some directory and one of its sub-directories is exported, the options
for the most specific directory will apply to clients. For example, if
<tt>/usr</tt> and <tt>/usr/local</tt> are both exported, a client accessing
<tt>/usr/local/bin</tt> will be effected by the options for the
<tt>/usr/local</tt> export. <p>
