No. /etc/exports is a list of which directories you want to share (export) via NFS. This is extremely system-specific, so it can't reasonably come from a package. You have to create it yourself. See man 5 exports for information on this file's format. As for the NFS daemon, the executable is named rpc.nfsd rather than just nfsd. -- When we reduce our own liberties to stop terrorism, the terrorists have already won. - reverius Innocence is no protection when governments go bad. - Mr. Slippery
