SHOWMOUNT(8)		     System Manager's Manual		    SHOWMOUNT(8)

NAME
     showmount -- show remote nfs mounts on host

SYNOPSIS
     showmount [-a | -d] [-E] [-e] [-1] [-3] [host]

DESCRIPTION
     The  showmount  utility  shows  status  information about the NFS server on
     host.  By default it prints the names of all hosts that have NFS file  sys-
     tems mounted on the host.	See NFS: Network File System Protocol Specifica-
     tion, RFC 1094, Appendix A, and NFS: Network File System Version 3 Protocol
     Specification, Appendix I, for a detailed description of the protocol.

     The following options are available:

     -a, --all
	     List all mount points in the form:
		   host:dirpath.

     -d, --directories
	     List directory paths of mount points instead of hosts.

     -E, --exports-script
	     Show  the	host's exports list in a script-friendly format.  Client
	     addresses and the header are not shown, and special characters  are
	     escaped.

     -e, --exports
	     Show the host's exports list.

     -1      Use mount protocol Version 1, compatible with legacy servers.

     -3      Ignored for backwards compatibility.

SEE ALSO
     mount(8), mount_nfs(8), mountd(8)

HISTORY
     The showmount utility first appeared in 4.4BSD.

BUGS
     The  mount  daemon  running  on  the  server only has an idea of the actual
     mounts, since the NFS server is stateless.  The showmount utility will only
     display the information as accurately as the mount daemon reports it.
