[ale] What users are mounting a share?

[Robert L. Harris]

Yeah, that's what I'm seeing and thought the problem was.  I was hoping
there was a way to actually find out who currently has the shares
mounted though.

Thus spake Dow Hurst (dhurst at kennesaw.edu):

> NAME
>     showmount - show all remote NFS mounts

> SYNOPSIS
>     /etc/showmount [-a] [-d] [-e] [-x] [host]
> 
> DESCRIPTION
>     showmount lists all the clients that have remotely mounted a filesystem
>     from host (or the local host if host is not given).  This 
> information is
>     maintained by the mountd(1M) server on host, and is saved across 
> crashes
>     in the file /etc/rmtab.
> 
> OPTIONS
>     -a   Print all remote mounts in the format hostname:directory where
>          hostname is the name of the client, and directory is the root 
> of the
>          filesystem that has been mounted.
> 
>     -d   List directories that have been remotely mounted by clients.
> 
>     -e   Print the list of exported filesystems.  For each filesystem, list
>          the clients given mount access.
> 
>     -x   Print the list of exported filesystems and all of their export
>          options, in the format described by exports(4).  This option
>          overrides the -e option.
> 
> SEE ALSO
>     exportfs(1M), mountd(1M), exports(4).
> 
> BUGS
>     If a client crashes, its entry is not removed from /etc/rmtab until it
>     reboots and executes umount -a.
