=== Server: Configure NFS to export home directories to a client system ===

This section covers configuring NFS to export filesystems to remote computers. For the purpose of this tutorial, our remote filesystems will be the home directories of users defined in our OpenLDAP directory. Let's start on our server (cls-kvm1) as we install NFS then export our ''/home'' filesystem to share our user home directories:
<code>
sudo apt-get -y install nfs-kernel-server
</code>

The file ''/etc/exports'' defines any filesystems you are making available to remote systems. Edit ''/etc/exports'' to include the following:
<code>
/home   cls-kvm2.itsm.unt.edu(rw,sync,no_root_squash)
</code>

Start the nfs-kernel-server service and confirm there are no errors:
<code>
sudo service nfs-kernel-server start
sudo service nfs-kernel-server status
</code>

Confirm the filesystem is being exported to the system we expected using the ''showmount -e'' command:
<code>
showmount -e

Export list for cls-kvm1:
/home cls-kvm2.itsm.unt.edu
</code>

That completes this lesson. In the next lesson you'll learn to configure the PAM framework to use LDAP.
