51.Op Ar host
52.Sh DESCRIPTION
53The
54.Nm
55utility shows status information about the
56.Tn NFS
57server on
58.Ar host .
59By default it prints the names of all hosts that have
60.Tn NFS
61filesystems mounted
62on the host.
63See
64.%T "NFS: Network File System Protocol Specification" ,
65RFC 1094,
66Appendix A,
67and
68.%T "NFS: Network File System Version 3 Protocol Specification" ,
69Appendix I,
70for a detailed description of the protocol.
71.Pp
72The following options are available:
73.Bl -tag -width indent
74.It Fl a
75List all mount points in the form:
76.Bd -ragged -offset indent -compact
77.Ar host : Ns Ar dirpath .
78.Ed
79.It Fl d
80List directory paths of mount points instead of hosts.
81.It Fl e
82Show the
83.Ar host Ns 's
84exports list.

91.Xr mount 8 ,
92.Xr mountd 8 ,
93.Xr mount_nfs 8
94.Sh BUGS
95The mount daemon running on the server only has an idea of the actual mounts,
96since the
97.Tn NFS
98server is stateless.
99The
100.Nm
101utility will only display the information
102as accurately as the mount daemon reports it.
103.Sh HISTORY
104The
105.Nm
106utility first appeared in
107.Bx 4.4 .
