Re: NFS: EXPORTFS options -- MIDRANGE-L

I was reading that, that looks like a remote STMF that will hold all your
paths to be mounted. I see what you want to do, I think it would, you
would have to test it out though. On the security aspect, believe the RO
is read only and the RW is read/write, guess not sure rob. I don't use NFS
that much other than for .ISO's etc. simple stuff, not sure what you are
looking to really do with NFS. Aren't you using mimix?? Couldn't you just
replicate those directories between i5's??

Will that record it into the /etc/exports file like the -F options have?
Again, using your technique I'd have to change my startup program for
every EXPORTFS, or CHGNFSEXP (same command), that I export. While, if I
originally do it right it will record it in that file, and then I can tell
it to export based on the data in that file. Also your method allows any
server/client to mount this server. I was trying to restrict a particular
mount to particular servers and clients.

I did a small test. You need to do this:

CHGNFSEXP OPTIONS('-I -O RW=,ANON=0') DIR('/rob') on your target machine.

Then do your mount on the host machine.

From there you should be able to do a DSPMFSINF on the source and on

the 2nd page of the screen you should see your remote mount

yes I am trying to do a mount between a couple of IBM i's. With a

future

possibility of a Linux server using that same mount. The trick is I am
trying to set it up so that I don't have to modify a startup program to
handle each individual EXPORTFS of each particular directory being
exported. I am trying to use the options in the EXPORTFS to store it in

a

file when I initially do an export and then be able to shut down
everything that's in the file when I go into restricted state and then,
after the IPL, export them again. Clear?

Are you trying to do a mount point between 2 i5's or an i5 and a windows
server.

What command did you run to do the original NFS against the directory.
Mount of some sort.

Rob, try it once with just one system using FQDN and see if it

works.
