on the computer you what to share a directory.
edit /etc/fstab and add
CGJung:/media/cdrom /nfscdrom nfs
rsize=8192, wsize=8192, timeo=14,intr
This imports the CGJung:/media/cdrom directory as /nfscdrom on the local host. The CGJung is my computer host name. Yours would be 10.0.0.1 or 10.0.0.2
so you would do
10.0.0.1:directory_to_impo
On the computer you want to export the/media/cdrom directory. /media/cdrom
Edit the /etc/exports
and add a line to export the directory.
add the following line.
/media/cdrom voyager (ro insecure)
The directory to export is /media/cdrom
voyager is computer that is allowed to import the directory.
make sure that the nfsd server is running.
This will automatically try and mount the directory on boot. If you do not what it to auto mount the directory add noauto on the line in the fstab file that imports the file after the file system type nfs.
