Browsers capable of supporting WebNFS access should provide access using an NFS URL that looks something like:
nfs://server<:port>/path |
server |
Name of the file server |
port |
Port number to use (the default value is 2049) |
path |
Path to file, which can be relative to the public file handle or to the root file system |
In most browsers, the URL service type (for example, nfs or http) is remembered from one transaction to the next, unless a URL that includes a different service type is loaded. When using NFS URLs, if a reference to an HTTP URL is loaded, subsequent pages are loaded using the HTTP protocol instead of the NFS protocol, unless the URLs specify an NFS URL.
