SYNOPSIS
showmount |
[-a | -d]
[-E] [-e]
[-1] [-3]
[host] |
DESCRIPTION
Theshowmount utility shows status information about the
NFS server on host. By default it prints the names of
all hosts that have NFS file systems mounted on the host. See
NFS: Network File System Protocol Specification, RFC
1094, Appendix A, and NFS: Network File System Version 3
Protocol Specification, Appendix I, for a detailed description of the
protocol.
The following options are available:
-a- List all mount points in the form:
host:dirpath.
-d- List directory paths of mount points instead of hosts.
-E- Show the host's exports list in a script-friendly format. Client addresses and the header are not shown, and special characters are escaped.
-e- Show the host's exports list.
-1- Use mount protocol Version 1, compatible with legacy servers.
-3- Ignored for backwards compatibility.

HISTORY
The showmount utility first appeared in
4.4BSD.
BUGS
The mount daemon running on the server only has an idea of the
actual mounts, since the NFS server is stateless. The
showmount utility will only display the information
as accurately as the mount daemon reports it.
