It reads the file 20 \fB/etc/dfs/sharetab\fR to determine which file systems are available for 21 mounting by which remote machines. See \fBsharetab\fR(4). \fBnfsd\fR running on 22 the local server will contact \fBmountd\fR the first time an \fBNFS\fR client 23 tries to access the file system to determine whether the client should get 24 read-write, read-only, or no access. This access can be dependent on the 25 security mode used in the remoted procedure call from the client. See 26 \fBshare_nfs\fR(1M). 27 .sp 28 .LP 29 The command also provides information as to what file systems are mounted by 30 which clients. This information can be printed using the \fBshowmount\fR(1M) 31 command. 32 .sp 33 .LP 34 The \fBmountd\fR daemon is automatically invoked by \fBshare\fR(1M). 35 .sp 36 .LP 37 Only super user can run the \fBmountd\fR daemon. 38 .SH OPTIONS 39 .sp 40 .LP 41 The options shown below are supported for NFSv2/v3 clients. They are not 42 supported for NFSv4 clients. 43 .sp 44 .ne 2 45 .na 46 \fB\fB-r\fR\fR 47 .ad 48 .RS 6n 49 Reject mount requests from clients. Clients that have file systems mounted will 50 not be affected. 51 .RE 52 53 .sp 54 .ne 2 55 .na 56 \fB\fB-v\fR\fR 57 .ad 58 .RS 6n 59 Run the command in verbose mode. Each time \fBmountd\fR determines what access 60 a client should get, it will log the result to the console, as well as how it 61 got that result. 62 .RE 63 64 .SH FILES 65 .sp 66 .ne 2 67 .na 68 \fB\fB/etc/dfs/sharetab\fR\fR 69 .ad 70 .RS 21n 71 shared file system table 72 .RE 73 74 .SH SEE ALSO 75 .sp 76 .LP 77 \fBnfsd\fR(1M), \fBshare\fR(1M), \fBshare_nfs\fR(1M), \fBshowmount\fR(1M), 78 \fBnfs\fR(4), \fBsharetab\fR(4), \fBattributes\fR(5) 79 .SH NOTES 80 .sp 81 .LP 82 Since \fBmountd\fR must be running for \fBnfsd\fR to function properly, 83 \fBmountd\fR is automatically started by the \fBsvc:/network/nfs/server\fR 84 service. See \fBnfs\fR(4). 85 .sp 86 .LP 87 Some routines that compare hostnames use case-sensitive string comparisons; 88 some do not. If an incoming request fails, verify that the case of the hostname 89 in the file to be parsed matches the case of the hostname called for, and 90 attempt the request again.
