 [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_File_System|Network File System]] (NFS) is a distributed file system protocol originally developed by Sun Microsystems in 1984,[1] allowing a user on a client computer to access files over a computer network much like local storage is accessed. NFS, like many other protocols, builds on the Open Network Computing Remote Procedure Call (ONC RPC) system. The NFS is an open standard defined in Request for Comments (RFC), allowing anyone to implement the protocol. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_File_System|Network File System]] (NFS) is a distributed file system protocol originally developed by Sun Microsystems in 1984,[1] allowing a user on a client computer to access files over a computer network much like local storage is accessed.

 + 
 +If you want to get mounted the NFS remote share at boot, you can add it in your fstab 
 + 
 +Eg 
 + 
 +<file> 
 +server:/usr/local/pub    /pub   nfs    defaults 0 0 
 +</file> 
 + 
 +Using fstab is useful for a server which is always on, and the NFS shares are available whenever the client boots up. Edit /etc/fstab file, and add an appropriate line reflecting the setup. Again, the server's NFS export root is omitted. 
 + 
 +Note: Consult the NFS and mount man pages for more mount options. Some additional mount options to consider are include: 
 + 
 +* NFS Timeout 
 + 
 +Nfs can have a really long timeout in case if the remote host is not reachable, if you want to avoid it you can do 
 + 
 +<file> 
 +mount -t nfs -o nolock,timeo=30,retrans=1,retry=0 192.168.xx.xxx:/home/e-smith/files /mnt/partage 
 +</file> 
 + 
 +**timeo** 
 + 
 +The -o timeo option allows designation of the length of time, in tenths of seconds, that the client will wait until it decides it will not get a reply from the server, and must try to send the request again. The default value is 7 tenths of a second  
 + 
 +**retrans** 
 + 
 +The -o retrans option allows designation of the number of timeouts allowed before the client gives up, and displays the Server not responding message. The default value is 3 attempts.  
 + 
 +**retry** 
 + 
 +The number of minutes that the mount command retries an NFS mount operation in the foreground or background before giving up. If a value of zero is specified, the mount command exits immediately after the first failure. If this option is not specified, the default value for foreground mounts is 2 minutes, and the default value for background mounts is 10000 minutes (80 minutes shy of one week).
