51.Ar host .
52By default it prints the names of all hosts that have
53.Tn NFS
54file systems mounted
55on the host.
56See
57.%T "NFS: Network File System Protocol Specification" ,
58RFC 1094,
59Appendix A,
60and
61.%T "NFS: Network File System Version 3 Protocol Specification" ,
62Appendix I,
63for a detailed description of the protocol.

66.Bl -tag -width indent
67.It Fl a , Fl -all

69.Bd -ragged -offset indent -compact
70.Ar host : Ns Ar dirpath .

93.Sh HISTORY
94The
95.Nm
96utility first appeared in
97.Bx 4.4 .
98.Sh BUGS
99The mount daemon running on the server only has an idea of the actual mounts,
100since the
101.Tn NFS
102server is stateless.
103The
104.Nm
105utility will only display the information
106as accurately as the mount daemon reports it.
