How to set an NFS network?

Lets say that «boris» is my logon such as /home/boris is my home folder.

1. set the «server» computer:

• install nfs-kernel-server and nfs-common

  $ sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server
  $ sudo apt-get install nfs-common
  

• in /etc/exports, define the folder to be shared by adding this:

  /home/boris   192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,all_squash,anonuid=1001,anongid=1001,subtree_check)
  

  with:
  /home/boris is the folder to be shared
  rw for read and write access of the client
  sync ??
  all_squash ??
  192.168.1.0/24 is a range of client computer IP address of your local network
  1001 is the user and group ID. To find it $ id boris
  

• manage hosts, 1st allow nobody in /etc/hosts.deny add
  

  portmap:ALL
  nfsd:ALL
  mountd:ALL
  

  Then allow your client computer in /etc/hosts.allow add

  portmap:192.168.1.0/24
  lockd:192.168.1.0/24
  nfsd:192.168.1.0/24
  mountd:192.168.1.0/24
  rquotad:192.168.1.0/24
  statd:192.168.1.0/24
  

  with 192.168.1.0/24 is a range of client computer IP address of your local network
  

• set the firewall UFW

  $ sudo ufw enable
  $ sudo ufw default deny incoming
  $ sudo ufw default deny outgoing
  $ sudo ufw allow from 192.168.1.0/24
  $ sudo ufw allow out from 192.168.1.0/24
  

  with 192.168.1.0/24 is a range of client computer IP address of your local network
  

• start the server

  $ sudo /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server start
  

  or after a modification of /etc/exports

  $ sudo /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart
  

2. set the «client» computer:

• install nfs-common and autofs

  $ sudo apt-get install nfs-common
  $ sudo apt-get install autofs
  

• create the folder used to mount the connection with the server

  $ sudo mkdir /media/shareFolder
  

• set autofs to automatically mount this folder,
  in /etc/auto.master add this line:

  /media/shareFolder /etc/auto.nfs --ghost, --timeout=60
  

  in /etc/auto.nfs add this line

  boris  -fstype=nfs,rw,intr,uid=1001,guid=1001   192.168.1.1:/home/boris
  

  with:
  192.168.1.1 is the address of server computer
  /home/boris is the folder shared on server computer.
  1001 is the user and group ID. To find it $ id boris
rw for read and write access

• set the firewall UFW

  $ sudo ufw enable
  $ sudo ufw default deny incoming
  $ sudo ufw default deny outgoing
  $ sudo ufw allow to 192.168.1.1
  $ sudo ufw allow out to 192.168.1.1
  

  with 192.168.1.1 is the address of the server computer
  

• and reboot your client computer.
