 ====== Home NFS Setup HOWTO ======
 This is a quick guide to setting up NFS in Slackware for use in a home LAN. The example used is for connection of a laptop computer with a desktop computer that also has an NTFS partition mounted on /music. It assumes that basic network connectivity has been established.
 This guide is largely cut and pasted from other more definitive documents.

 Check that this file is executable on both computers. (Not strictly necessary as /etc/rc.d/rc.nfsd will run this, but will be important if you want the computer to work as an NFS client only)
