NAME

dfshares - list available RFS resources from remote systems

SYNOPSIS

dfshares [-F rfs] [-h] [server ...]

DESCRIPTION

dfshares provides information about resources available to the host through Remote File Sharing. The -F flag may be omitted if RFS is the first file system type listed in the file /etc/dfs/fstypes. The query may be restricted to the output of resources available from one or more servers. If no server is specified, all resources in the host's domain are displayed. A server may be given in the following form:

system Specifies a system in the host's domain.

domain. Specifies all systems in domain.

     domain.system       Specifies system in domain.
The output of dfshares consists of an optional  header  line
(suppressed  with  the  -h flag) followed by a list of lines
containing whitespace-separated fields.  For each  resource,
the fields are:
        resource server access transport description ...
where

resource Specifies the resource name that must be given to the mount(1M) command.

server Specifies the system that is making the resource available.

access Specifies the access permissions granted to the client systems, either ro (for read-only) or rw (for read and write).

transport Specifies the transport provider over which the resource is shared.

     description    Describes the resource.
A field may be null.  Each null  field  is  indicated  by  a
hyphen  (-)  unless  the remainder of the fields on the line
are also null.  In this case, it may be omitted.

ERRORS

If your host machine cannot contact the domain name server, or the argument specified is syntactically incorrect, an error message is sent to standard error.
