NAME
     showmount - show all remote NFS mounts

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/sbin/showmount [-a] [-d] [-e] [-x] [-T protocol] [host]

DESCRIPTION
     showmount lists all the clients that have remotely mounted a filesystem
     from host (or the local host if host is not given).  This information is
     maintained by the mountd(1M) server on host, and is saved across crashes
     in the file /etc/rmtab.

OPTIONS
     -a   Print all remote mounts in the format hostname:directory where
          hostname is the name of the client, and directory is the root of the
          filesystem that has been mounted.

     -d   List directories that have been remotely mounted by clients.

     -e   Print the list of exported filesystems.  For each filesystem, list
          the clients given mount access.

     -x   Print the list of exported filesystems and all of their export
          options, in the format described by exports(4).  This option
          overrides the -e option.

     -T protocol
          Use specified protocol to contact host.  The protocol is resolved
          using getnetconfigent(3N).

FILES
     /etc/rmtab

SEE ALSO
     exportfs(1M), mountd(1M), exports(4).

CAVEAT
     Export options, printed by showmount -x, are only provided by Irix mountd
     server.

BUGS
     If a client crashes, its entry is not removed from /etc/rmtab until it
     reboots and executes umount -a.
