45.Op Ar host
46.Sh DESCRIPTION
47The
48.Nm
49utility shows status information about the
50.Tn NFS
51server on
52.Ar host .
53By default it prints the names of all hosts that have
54.Tn NFS
55file systems mounted
56on the host.
57See
58.%T "NFS: Network File System Protocol Specification" ,
59RFC 1094,
60Appendix A,
61and
62.%T "NFS: Network File System Version 3 Protocol Specification" ,
63Appendix I,
64for a detailed description of the protocol.

88.Sh HISTORY
89The
90.Nm
91utility first appeared in
92.Bx 4.4 .
93.Sh BUGS
94The mount daemon running on the server only has an idea of the actual mounts,
95since the
96.Tn NFS
97server is stateless.
98The
99.Nm
100utility will only display the information
101as accurately as the mount daemon reports it.
