Question

You are working as an Administrator. There is common data shared (/data) from 192.168.0.254 to all users in your local LAN. When a user's system starts, the shared data should automatically mount on the /common directory.

Explanation

To automatically mount at boot time, use the /etc/fstab file. The /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit file reads and mounts all file systems specified in /etc/fstab. To mount Network Sharing Files (NFS), specify nfs as the filesystem type.

Edit /etc/fstab using vi /etc/fstab.
Add the following entry to mount the NFS share: 192.168.0.254:/data /common nfs defaults 0 0
Save and close the /etc/fstab file.
Reboot the system for the changes to take effect: reboot.
