nfsutils
nfsutils refers to a collection of utilities and libraries commonly found on Unix-like operating systems that facilitate the Network File System (NFS) protocol. NFS allows a computer to mount directories and files from another computer over a network, making them accessible as if they were local. The nfsutils package provides the tools necessary to configure and manage NFS clients and servers.
Key components often included in nfsutils are the NFS client daemons, such as rpc.statd and rpc.lockd, which
Users interact with nfsutils through commands like mount and umount to attach and detach remote file systems.
