.SH NAME
share_nfs \- make local NFS file systems available for mounting by remote
systems
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
\fBshare\fR [\fB-d\fR \fIdescription\fR] [\fB-F\fR nfs] [\fB-o\fR \fIspecific_options\fR] \fIpathname\fR
.fi

.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBshare\fR utility makes local file systems available for mounting by
remote systems. It starts the \fBnfsd\fR(1M) and \fBmountd\fR(1M) daemons if
they are not already running.
.sp
.LP
If no argument is specified, then \fBshare\fR displays all file systems
currently shared, including \fBNFS\fR file systems and file systems shared
through other distributed file system packages.
.SH OPTIONS
.sp
.LP
The following options are supported:
.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fB-d\fR \fIdescription\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
Provide a comment that describes the file system to be shared.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2

.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fB-o\fR \fIspecific_options\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
Specify \fIspecific_options\fR in a comma-separated list of keywords and
attribute-value-assertions for interpretation by the file-system-type-specific
command. If \fIspecific_options\fR is not specified, then by default sharing is
read-write to all clients. \fIspecific_options\fR can be any combination of the
following:
.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fBaclok\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
Allows the \fBNFS\fR server to do access control for \fBNFS\fR Version 2
clients (running SunOS 2.4 or earlier). When \fBaclok\fR is set on the server,
maximal access is given to all clients. For example, with \fBaclok\fR set, if
anyone has read permissions, then everyone does. If \fBaclok\fR is not set,
minimal access is given to all clients.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fBanon=\fR\fIuid\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
Set \fIuid\fR to be the effective user \fBID\fR of unknown users. By default,
unknown users are given the effective user \fBID\fR \fBUID_NOBODY\fR. If
\fIuid\fR is set to \fB\(mi1\fR, access is denied.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fIcharset\fR=\fIaccess_list\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
Where \fIcharset\fR is one of: \fBeuc-cn\fR, \fBeuc-jp\fR, \fBeuc-jpms\fR,
\fBeuc-kr\fR, \fBeuc-tw\fR, \fBiso8859-1\fR, \fBiso8859-2\fR, \fBiso8859-5\fR,

\fBiso8859-13\fR, \fBiso8859-15\fR, \fBkoi8-r\fR.
.sp
Clients that match the \fIaccess_list\fR for one of these properties will be
assumed to be using that character set and file and path names will be
converted to UTF-8 for the server.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fBindex=\fR\fBfile\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
Load \fBfile\fR rather than a listing of the directory containing this file
when the directory is referenced by an \fBNFS URL\fR.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fBlog=tag\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
Enables \fBNFS\fR server logging for the specified file system. The optional
tag determines the location of the related log files. The \fBtag\fR is defined
in \fBetc/nfs/nfslog.conf\fR. If no \fBtag\fR is specified, the default values
associated with the \fBglobal\fR \fBtag\fR in \fBetc/nfs/nfslog.conf\fR is
used. Support of NFS server logging is only available for NFS Version 2 and
Version 3 requests.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fBnone=\fR\fIaccess_list\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
Access is not allowed to any client that matches the access list. The exception
is when the access list is an asterisk (\fB*\fR), in which case \fBro\fR or
\fBrw\fR can override \fBnone\fR.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fBnosub\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
Prevents clients from mounting subdirectories of shared directories. For
example, if \fB/export\fR is shared with the \fBnosub\fR option on server
\fIfooey\fR then a \fBNFS\fR client cannot do:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
mount -F nfs fooey:/export/home/mnt
.fi
.in -2
.sp

NFS Version 4 does not use the \fBMOUNT\fR protocol. The \fBnosub\fR option
only applies to NFS Version 2 and Version 3 requests.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fBnosuid\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
By default, clients are allowed to create files on the shared file system with
the setuid or setgid mode enabled. Specifying \fBnosuid\fR causes the server
file system to silently ignore any attempt to enable the setuid or setgid mode
bits.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.mk

\fB\fBpublic\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
Moves the location of the public file handle from \fBroot\fR (\fB/\fR) to the
exported directory for Web\fBNFS\fR-enabled browsers and clients. This option
does not enable Web\fBNFS\fR service; Web\fBNFS\fR is always on. Only one file
system per server may use this option. Any other option, including the
\fB-ro=list\fR and \fB-rw=list\fR options can be included with the \fBpublic\fR
option.

Sharing uses one or more of the specified security modes. The \fImode\fR in the
\fBsec=\fR\fImode\fR option must be a node name supported on the client. If the
\fBsec=\fR option is not specified, the default security mode used is
\fBAUTH_SYS.\fR Multiple \fBsec=\fR options can be specified on the command
line, although each mode can appear only once. The security modes are defined
in \fBnfssec\fR(5).
.sp
Each \fBsec=\fR option specifies modes that apply to any subsequent \fBwindow=,
rw, ro, rw=, ro=\fR and \fBroot=\fR options that are provided before another
\fBsec=\fRoption. Each additional \fBsec=\fR resets the security mode context,
so that more \fBwindow=,\fR \fBrw,\fR \fBro,\fR \fBrw=,\fR \fBro=\fR and
\fBroot=\fR options can be supplied for additional modes.

The name of a host. With a server configured for \fBDNS\fR or \fBLDAP\fR naming

hostname in a netgroup must be represented as a fully qualified \fBDNS\fR or
\fBLDAP\fR name.
.RE

.sp

\fBdomain name suffix\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
To use domain membership the server must use \fBDNS\fR or \fBLDAP\fR to resolve
hostnames to \fBIP\fR addresses; that is, the "hosts" entry in the
\fB/etc/nsswitch.conf\fR must specify "dns" or "ldap" ahead of "nis" or
"nisplus", since only \fBDNS\fR and \fBLDAP\fR return the full domain name of
the host. Other name services like \fBNIS\fR or \fBNIS+\fR cannot be used to
resolve hostnames on the server because when mapping an \fBIP\fR address to a
hostname they do not return domain information. For example,
.sp
.in +2
.nf
NIS or NIS+   172.16.45.9 --> "myhost"
.fi
.in -2
.sp

and
.sp
.in +2
.nf
DNS or LDAP   172.16.45.9 --> 
     "myhost.mydomain.mycompany.com"
.fi
.in -2
.sp

The domain name suffix is distinguished from hostnames and netgroups by a
prefixed dot. For example,
.sp
\fBrw=.mydomain.mycompany.com\fR
.sp
A single dot can be used to match a hostname with no suffix. For example,
.sp
\fBrw=.\fR
.sp
matches "mydomain" but not "mydomain.mycompany.com". This feature can be used
to match hosts resolved through \fBNIS\fR and \fBNIS+\fR rather than \fBDNS\fR
and \fBLDAP\fR.

\fBnetwork\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
The network or subnet component is preceded by an at-sign (\fB@\fR). It can be
either a name or a dotted address. If a name, it is converted to a dotted
address by \fBgetnetbyname\fR(3SOCKET). For example,
.sp
\fB=@mynet\fR
.sp
would be equivalent to:
.sp
\fB=@172.16\fR or \fB=@172.16.0.0\fR
.sp
The network prefix assumes an octet-aligned netmask determined from the zeroth
octet in the low-order part of the address up to and including the high-order
octet, if you want to specify a single IP address (see below). In the case
where network prefixes are not byte-aligned, the syntax allows a mask length to
be specified explicitly following a slash (\fB/\fR) delimiter. For example,
.sp
\fB=@theothernet/17\fR or \fB=@172.16.132/22\fR
.sp
\&...where the mask is the number of leftmost contiguous significant bits in
the corresponding IP address.
.sp
When specifying individual IP addresses, use the same \fB@\fR notation
described above, without a netmask specification. For example:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
=@172.16.132.14
.fi
.in -2
.sp

Multiple, individual IP addresses would be specified, for example, as:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
root=@172.16.132.20:@172.16.134.20
.fi
.in -2

A prefixed minus sign (\fB\(mi\fR) denies access to that component of
\fIaccess_list\fR. The list is searched sequentially until a match is found
that either grants or denies access, or until the end of the list is reached.

.sp

The default global logging parameters are used since no tag identifier is
specified. The location of the log file, as well as the necessary logging work
files, is specified by the global entry in \fB/etc/nfs/nfslog.conf\fR. The
\fBnfslogd\fR(1M) daemon runs only if at least one file system entry in
\fB/etc/dfs/dfstab\fR is shared with logging enabled upon starting or rebooting
the system. Simply sharing a file system with logging enabled from the command

If the \fBsec=\fR option is presented at least once, all uses of the
\fBwindow=,\fR \fBrw,\fR \fBro,\fR \fBrw=,\fR \fBro=\fR and \fBroot=\fR options

.sp
.LP
If one or more explicit \fBsec=\fR options are presented, \fIsys\fR must appear
in one of the options mode lists for accessing using the \fBAUTH_SYS\fR
security mode to be allowed. For example:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
\fBshare\fR \fB-F\fR \fBnfs /var\fR
\fBshare\fR \fB-F\fR \fBnfs\fR \fB-o\fR \fBsec=sys /var\fR

.sp
.LP
Unlike previous implementations of \fBshare_nfs\fR, access checking for the
\fBwindow=, rw, ro, rw=,\fR and \fBro=\fR options is done per \fBNFS\fR
request, instead of per mount request.
.sp
.LP
Combining multiple security modes can be a security hole in situations where
the \fBro=\fR and \fBrw=\fR options are used to control access to weaker
security modes. In this example,
.sp
.in +2
.nf
\fBshare\fR \fB-F\fR \fBnfs\fR \fB-o\fR \fBsec=dh,rw,sec=sys,rw=hosta /var\fR
.fi
.in -2
.sp

.sp
.LP
an intruder can forge the IP address for \fBhosta\fR (albeit on each \fBNFS\fR
request) to side-step the stronger controls of \fBAUTH_DES.\fR Something like:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
\fBshare\fR \fB-F\fR \fBnfs\fR \fB-o\fR \fBsec=dh,rw,sec=sys,ro /var\fR
.fi
.in -2
.sp

.sp
.LP
is safer, because any client (intruder or legitimate) that avoids
\fBAUTH_DES\fR only gets read-only access. In general, multiple security modes
per \fBshare\fR command should only be used in situations where the clients
using more secure modes get stronger access than clients using less secure
modes.
.sp
.LP
If \fBrw=,\fR and \fBro=\fR options are specified in the same \fBsec=\fR
clause, and a client is in both lists, the order of the two options determines
the access the client gets. If client \fBhosta\fR is in two netgroups -
\fBgroup1\fR and \fBgroup2\fR - in this example, the client would get read-only
access:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
\fBshare\fR \fB-F\fR \fBnfs\fR \fB-o\fR \fBro=group1,rw=group2 /var\fR
.fi
.in -2
.sp

.sp
.LP
In this example \fBhosta\fR would get read-write access:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
\fBshare\fR \fB-F\fR \fBnfs\fR \fB-o\fR \fBrw=group2,ro=group1 /var\fR
.fi
.in -2
.sp

.sp
.LP
If within a \fBsec=\fR clause, both the \fBro\fR and \fBrw=\fR options are
specified, for compatibility, the order of the options rule is not enforced.
All hosts would get read-only access, with the exception to those in the
read-write list. Likewise, if the \fBro=\fR and \fBrw\fR options are specified,
all hosts get read-write access with the exceptions of those in the read-only
list.
.sp
.LP
The \fBro=\fR and \fBrw=\fR options are guaranteed to work over \fBUDP\fR and
\fBTCP\fR but may not work over other transport providers.

There are no interactions between the \fBroot=\fR option and the \fBrw, ro,
rw=,\fR and \fBro=\fR options. Putting a host in the \fBroot\fR list does not
override the semantics of the other options. The access the host gets is the
same as when the \fBroot=\fR options is absent. For example, the following
\fBshare\fR command denies access to \fBhostb:\fR

If the file system being shared is a symbolic link to a valid pathname, the
canonical path (the path which the symbolic link follows) are shared. For
example, if \fB/export/foo\fR is a symbolic link to \fB/export/bar\fR
(\fB/export/foo -> /export/bar\fR), the following \fBshare\fR command results
in \fB/export/bar\fR as the shared pathname (and not \fB/export/foo\fR).

The same command entered from the command line does not share the \fB/disk\fR
file system unless there is at least one file system entry in the
\fB/etc/dfs/dfstab\fR file. The \fBmountd\fR(1M) and \fBnfsd\fR(1M) daemons
only run if there is a file system entry in \fB/etc/dfs/dfstab\fR when starting
or rebooting the system.
.sp
.LP
The \fBmountd\fR(1M) process allows the processing of a path name the contains
a symbolic link. This allows the processing of paths that are not themselves
explicitly shared with \fBshare_nfs\fR. For example, \fB/export/foo\fR might be
a symbolic link that refers to \fB/export/bar\fR which has been specifically
shared. When the client mounts \fB/export/foo\fR the \fBmountd\fR processing
follows the symbolic link and responds with the \fB/export/bar\fR. The NFS
Version 4 protocol does not use the \fBmountd\fR processing and the client's
use of \fB/export/foo\fR does not work as it does with NFS Version 2 and
Version 3 and the client receives an error when attempting to mount
\fB/export/foo\fR.
