Browsing Using an NFS URL

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 

Note -

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.
