I'd like to know if there are any counterparts to the program "dfshares" that runs under SYSVR4, which basically looks at the machine given on the command line and returns the directories that are currently being "shared" -- allowed for mounting from another site. This relieves a lot of pecking around and would be really neat if it was supported under BSD... -- -------------+------------------+----------------------------+--------------- Paul Stewart | enforcer@rpi.edu | stewart@amiga.ecse.rpi.edu | (518) 276-7315 -------------+------------------+----------------------------+---------------

If so, your description of dfshares sounds like "showmount -e", which lists all the directories that are exported. Other options to showmount let you see which directories have actually be mounted by remote hosts. -- Barry Margolin, Thinking Machines Corp. barmar@think.com {uunet,harvard}!think!barmar
