39.2 Importing File Systems Manually
File systems can easily be imported manually from an NFS server. The only
prerequisite is a running RPC port mapper, which can be started by entering
the command rcportmap start as
root. Once this prerequisite is
met, remote file systems exported on the respective machines can be mounted
in the file system just like local hard disks using the command
mount with the following syntax:
mount host:remote-path local-path
If user directories from the machine sun, for example, should be
imported, use the following command:
mount sun:/home /home
