Accessing an NFS URL by Using a Browser
Browsers that are capable of supporting the WebNFS service should provide access to an NFS URL
that resembles the following:
nfs://server<:port>/path
- server
-
Name of the file server
- port
-
Port number to use (2049, default value)
- path
-
Path to file, which can be relative to the public file handle or to the root file
system
Note -
In most browsers, the URL service type (for example,
nfs or
http) is remembered from one transaction to the next. The exception occurs when a
URL that includes a different service type is loaded. For example, if a reference to an HTTP URL is
loaded after you use an NFS URL, subsequent pages are loaded by using the HTTP protocol instead of
the NFS protocol.
