nfs_niloader(7) Mac OS X Darwin ZSH customization nfs_niloader(7) NAME nfs_niloader - load NFS filesystems listed in /etc/fstab into the Net- Info database. SYNOPSIS nfs_niloader DESCRIPTION nfs_niloader is a function that runs the following command sudo niload -m -v fstab . < /etc/fstab that loads the information contained in the file /etc/fstab into the NetInfo database. This step is required before the filesystems listed in /etc/fstab can be mounted for the first time. The script then runs the command df -h to show the user what is already mounted, and prints the relevant column of the contents of the file /etc/fstab, and finally suggest to the user that the command sudo mount /filesystem be used to mount then new filesystem(s) contained in /etc/fstab. The main point of this function is to help with the hard-to-remember niload syntax. SEE ALSO niload(8), fstab(5), nfsd(8), df(1), mount(8) AUTHORS William Scott MAINTAINER W. G.
