No need to be so technical. An NFS mount is a unix fileshare - A unix server mounting a filesystem that lives on the hard disk of another unix server. The unix equivolent of a windows share.

Without knowing why he wants the information it's impossible to tell how technical he wants to get and these days unix can use smb, cifs, ncp and there's multiple versions of NFS out there so discussion unix network filesystems does require a good bit of technical data.

One of the links I posted is a basic definition of NFS Mount. And, as was requested in the initial post, I also included two more specific and technical documents..

Hi There,

Actually we are working on a application, the application in such a way that whenever an attachment added to application it will store the attachment in the system dirve itself. (The next time when this is called it will fetch from the system path rather than the DB in order to save time).

The path where it has to be store is specified in xml file, this is working fine in Windows family, but it is not working in Unix OS. The folder has full permission 777.
