I am accepting this as the answer because after reading this I checked linux information on these subjects and the information appears to correct. &nbsp;I would have liked to wait till the next vulnerability test was run but that is not for 30 days and questions don't stay open that long.<br />

I have two nfs shares between a as400 and 2 linux serves. &nbsp;The rhel5 serves will answer a query with the ip address shares. &nbsp;Is there anyway to have the shares run without telling any computer that they are running?<br />

In other words a stealth share that one can use only if he already knows that it is there.<br />

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).
