NAME
vhe_u_mnt — perform Network File System (NFS) mount to remote file system
DESCRIPTION
vhe_u_mnt
enables a user to perform a Network File System (NFS)
mount to a remote file system.
vhe_u_mnt
is executed upon completion of a login using user name
mounter.
After logging in as user
mounter,
vhe_u_mnt
asks for the name of the machine to which an NFS
mount is to be done.
If that machine name is listed in file
/etc/vhe_list,
mounts that are valid for that machine are made.
This prevents the command from giving a user the ability to do NFS
mounts to arbitrary machines.
File
/etc/vhe_list
contains a list of hostnames that are part of the VHE group.
User name
mounter
must be present in file
/etc/passwd
file for it to be a valid login name.
A typical entry resembles:
mounter::6:1::/:/usr/sbin/vhe/vhe_u_mnt
DIAGNOSTICS
If a machine name is supplied that is not contained in
/etc/vhe_list,
an error message is produced indicating that the machine is
not on the list of machines available for mounting.
