While researching some possible quirks with files accessed through NFS, I found a few web pages telling me what to do with exportfs. The same pages referenced doing "cat /etc/fs/nfs/exports" to see a list of exported directories and their settings.
I have an older system running Mandrake 8.x and it has exportfs and when I do "cat /etc/fs/nfs/exports" I get a list of all the exported directories. On my newer system, which is Debian based (running Mepis, but soon to be replaced with Sarge), there is no exportfs and no /etc/fs/nfs/exports. When I do an "apt-cache search exportfs" I get no answers. I have not been able to find any useful info on exportfs, other than the man page, that might clue me in as to why exportfs is not included in the NFS version I'm using on Debian. Is there a reason there is no exportfs in the Debian package? Does it make a difference to the kernel that the info in /proc/fs/nfs/exports is not there on my Debian system? (I realize the file itself may not be the issue, but if so, it might be that the absence of that file indicates something else that is wrong/missing.) Thanks for any helpful info on this!
