SYNOPSIS
/.us/.sbi/showmount
[ -adehv ]
[ --all ]
[ --directories ]
[ --exports ]
[ --help ]
[ --version ]
[ host ]
DESCRIPTION
showmount
queries the mount daemon on a remote host for information about
the state of the NFS server on that machine. With no options
showmount
lists the set of clients who are mounting from that host.
The output from
showmount
is designed to
appear as though it were processesed through ``sort -u''.
OPTIONS
- -a or --all
-
List both the client hostname and mounted directory in
host:dir format.
- -d or --directories
-
List only the directories mounted by some client.
- -e or --exports
-
Show the NFS server's export list.
- -h or --help
-
Provide a short help summary.
- -v or --version
-
Report the current version number of the program.
- --no-headers
-
Suppress the descriptive headings from the output.

rpc.mountd(8),
rpc.nfsd(8)
BUGS
The completeness and accurary of the information that
showmount
displays varies according to the NFS server's implementation.
Because
showmount
sorts and uniqs the output, it is impossible to determine from
the output whether a client is mounting the same directory more than once.
