Re: mount remote file system



I'm sorry. The question was not clear. I want to mount a remote DVD and have it presented to me on my local machine. I was searching whether there is any option using the command 'mount'. Is it possible with 'mount -t nfs' or 'mount -t smbfs'?

Hi,

Is there any way to mount a remote file system using the command 'mount'? (not sshfs). I'm using Linux in the remote machine too. I'm trying to mount the dvd in the remote machine.

You want a remote filesystem visible to your machine?  That's what NFS is for.

But are you asking how to use the *local* mount(8) to mount a remote DVD and have it presented to you on your local machine?

I *seriously* doubt that's possible.  Unless there's some script that automates the "ssh pmount" and tells /etc/exports about the new fs.
