Hi all,

I'd like a file system present on one machine to be made available on another machine. I used the mount command for this. But got an error saying finding the address for the remote machine and it fails after that.
Is there any other way for me to do the same?
Is there any system call in C to help me with this problem?

Hope I get a solution from one of u... :)

To make a Directory to be visible on other machine it should be remote mounted on the other machine.

The command looks like this.

mount <ipaddress>:/the directory u with to mount from host /target directory

For this u should have an entry of the target machine ip address in the file /etc/exports with permission of read r write

then run exportfs -ar

restart the nfs daemon in ur machine

now execute the mount system call on the target machine

everthing should work fine

Thanks & regards,
Sundar.
