48.Op Fl e3
49.Op Ar host
50.Sh DESCRIPTION
51The
52.Nm
53utility shows status information about the
54.Tn NFS
55server on
56.Ar host .
57By default it prints the names of all hosts that have
58.Tn NFS
59file systems mounted
60on the host.
61See
62.%T "NFS: Network File System Protocol Specification" ,
63RFC 1094,
64Appendix A,
65and
66.%T "NFS: Network File System Version 3 Protocol Specification" ,
67Appendix I,
68for a detailed description of the protocol.

71.Bl -tag -width indent
72.It Fl a

74.Bd -ragged -offset indent -compact

92.Sh HISTORY
93The
94.Nm
95utility first appeared in
96.Bx 4.4 .
97.Sh BUGS
98The mount daemon running on the server only has an idea of the actual mounts,
99since the
100.Tn NFS
101server is stateless.
102The
103.Nm
104utility will only display the information
105as accurately as the mount daemon reports it.
