What you are after is something like: mount -t nft <server>:<share> <mountpoint> mount -t nfs server.localnet.net:/data /mnt/network In /etc/fstab, you would use: <server>:<share> <mountpoint> nfs defaults 0 0 A couple of things to keep in mind - user number, and not user name control access, so if gene is 501 on one machine and 512 on the other, he will not be able to access the nfs mounted files. Also, by default, root is mapped to user nobody, and so has almost no access to nfs mounted file systems.
