NAME
     dfstab - file  containing  commands  for  sharing  resources
     across a network

DESCRIPTION
     dfstab resides in directory /etc/dfs and  contains  commands
     for  sharing resources across a network. dfstab gives a sys-
     tem  administrator  a  uniform  method  of  controlling  the
     automatic sharing of local resources.


     Each line of the dfstab file consists of  a  share(1M)  com-
     mand.  The dfstab file can be read by the shell to share all
     resources. System administrators can also prepare their  own
     shell scripts to execute particular lines from dfstab.


     The contents of dfstab put  into  effect  when  the  command
     shown below is run. See svcadm(1M).

       /usr/sbin/svcadm enable network/nfs/server
