How do you mount a drive in Unix?
In order to mount a drive, if it is a network drive, you must have an NFS server installed and an NFS client on the machine you wish to mount the directory for. The NFS server will export the file system to the network, and the NFS client machine will mount it. To mount it on a client machine, create or use an empty directory. Then, using the 'mount' command, indicate the server name and directory on the server and the mount point of the client. For example: mount tarzan:/opt/testing/data /mnt Will mount a directory from the 'tarzan' server called /opt/testing/data under the /mnt directory of the client. So when a client looks at /mnt, they are really looking at /opt/testing/data on the server.
