If you want to set up your system so that certain files and directories are shared automatically whenever you start NFS operations, you need to edit the file /etc/dfs/dfstab. Note: The following options, which are supported by mount in SCO OpenServer Release 5, are not supported in UnixWare 7.1: exec, noexec, trunc, notrunc, tcp, and spongy. Use the dfstab file to list all the resources that your server shares with its clients and to control which clients may mount a resource. Once a resource has been shared on a server through the NFS, it can be accessed from a client. Mounting can be done automatically when NFS operation begins on the client or when NFS is started using the script /etc/init.d/nfs. Note: A server can be a client of another server on a local network, in which case, your server vfstab file may need to include both local and remote mounts.

Migration Tip
It is recommended that you set up automatic sharing when you first set up your Network
File System (NFS) if you need to share the same set of resources on a regular basis. For
example, if your server is a server that supports diskless clients, you need to make your
client root directories available at all times. If you want to set up your system so that
certain files and directories are shared automatically whenever you start NFS operations,
you need to edit the file
/etc/dfs/dfstab.
Note:
The following options, which are supported by mount in SCO OpenServer Release
5, are not supported in UnixWare 7.1:
exec, noexec, trunc, notrunc, tcp
, and
spongy
.
Use the
dfstab
file to list all the resources that your server shares with its clients and to
control which clients may mount a resource. Once a resource has been shared on a server
through the NFS, it can be accessed from a client. Mounting can be done automatically
when NFS operation begins on the client or when NFS is started using the script
/etc/init.d/nfs
.
Note:
A server can be a client of another server on a local network, in which case, your
server
vfstab
file may need to include both local and remote mounts.

/etc/vfstab
file.
