| Description | ||||
| The "nfs-utils" package provides a daemon for the kernel Network File System (NFS) server and related tools. This package also contains the "showmount" program. The "showmount" program queries the mount daemon on a remote host for information about the NFS server on the remote host. For example, "showmount" can display the clients that are mounted on that host. | ||||
