    aLinux Network File System. (NFS)
    ===================================================================================================
    Test file without any real purpose. You can populate/remove from the default: /home/nfs; directory.
    ===================================================================================================

1.  This file is part of the nfs-utils rpm. By default, a local share in /home/nfs -> /mnt/nfs0; has 
    been created with read/write user permission(s).
    
    To remove, edit and/or add shares - edit /etc/exports; change the default 127.0.0.1 -> locahost 
    to a real IP address for remote access.

2.  Run 'exportfs -rav' (after adding a share(s) which will also update the proc nfsd and /var/lib/nfs/*).
    You should now be ('mount' ready to the world!) when using the default mount options.  Else change 
    the permissions to a more secure NFS, then issue a 'mount -a' which is our default used in aLinux to 
    have your share(s) start automatically, on each 'boot - computer (restart)', located in /etc/fstab;.


(a) 1.  Testing - Lets create some mount-points, e.g. /mnt/nfs{1,2,3}; i.e., mkdir -p /mnt/nfs1
    2.  Show /etc/fstab; where the new NFS mount point(s) is by editing: /etc/fstab.
    3. 'exportfs -rav' - updates the system.
    4. 'mount -a' or 'pmount /mnt/nfs1', etc. or even 'mount 127.0.0.1:/home/nfs /mnt/nfs0' will work.

									Test from other boxes as well.

    Question:	Why use NFS?, why not ftpmount or SAMBA or something else?

    Answer: 	NSF uses less overhead, and is more convenient then using 
		SAMBA or FTP, plus NFS is active and very well documented.
