# TCP/IP Configuration Notebook Online Help

## NFS Tab

Use this tab to configure NFS services.

The Java Configuration Notebook allows the user to configure parameters for the Network File System. Changes saved on this page are updated to the "exports" file, existing in the \MPTN\ETC Directory.

There are two rows of buttons which contain the buttons titled "ADD", "CHANGE" and "DELETE". In addition the bottom row contains an "UNDO" button.

- BUTTONS IN THE BOTTOM ROW :

  Clicking on the ADD button pops up a dialog window where the user needs to enter the directory path that needs to be shared under NFS. Users can optionally enter the ALIAS and the COMMENTS. To CHANGE or to DELETE the "shared directory" under NFS, click on the CHANGE and the DELETE buttons respectively. On the dialog box that pops up, click on OK to perform the actual CHANGE or DELETE, or click on CANCEL to undo the operation.

- BUTTONS OF THE TOP ROW :

  Clicking on the ADD button pops up a dialog window which asks for the hostname for which to give access to. Access can be READ-ONLY or READ-WRITE depending on whether the user has highlighted the list under READ ONLY HOSTS or READ WRITE HOSTS respectively. To CHANGE or DELETE the hostname for access, highlight the item by clicking on it, and then click the CHANGE or the DELETE buttons respectively. When the Dialog box pops up , press OK to CHANGE or DELETE, or press CANCEL to undo the operation. The UNDO button is used to UNDO changes that are done in the current session.

- MAKE DIRECTORY PUBLIC Check Box :

  Clicking on this check box makes the highlighted directory public.

  There are 3 buttons :

  - Specify hosts

  - Allow all hosts read-only

  - Allow all hosts read-write

  If you click on Specify hosts, the user must specify the hostnames for which directory access is given. In remaining two cases, no hostnames need be specified.
