What is the Network File System (NFS)?

• The Network File System (NFS) is a way of
  mounting Linux discs/directories over a network.
  An NFS server can export one or more directories
  that can then be mounted on a remote Linux
  machine. Note, that if you need to mount a Linux
  filesystem on a Windows machine, you need to use
  Samba/CIFS instead.

Why use the Network File System (NFS)?

• The main use of NFS in the home context, is to
  share out data on a central server (-for example,
  your music collection) to all the PCs in the
  house. This way, you have a single copy of data
  (-hopefully, well backed up) accessible from a
  central location.

Benefits of NFS

• NFS allows local access to remote files.
• It uses standard client/server architecture for
  file sharing between all nix based machines.
• With NFS it is not necessary that both machines
  run on the same OS.
• With the help of NFS we can configure centralized
  storage solutions.
• Users get their data irrespective of physical
  location.
• No manual refresh needed for new files.
• Newer version of NFS also supports acl, pseudo
  root mounts.
• Can be secured with Firewalls and Kerberos.
