NAME

dfshares - list available resources from remote or local systems

SYNOPSIS

dfshares [-F fstype] [-h] [-o specific_options] [server ...]

DESCRIPTION

dfshares provides information about resources available to the host through a distributed file system of type fstype. Specific_options as well as the semantics of server are specific to particular distributed file systems. If dfshares is entered without arguments, all resources currently shared on the local system are displayed, regardless of file system type. 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 name of 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/write). If dfshares cannot determine access permissions, a hyphen (-) is displayed.

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.
