file sharing with NFS

Being one of those folks who makes their living using Microsoft products, I've found it both a rewarding experience and also a frustrating challenge to do many simple tasks in Linux. One of those thasks which have escaped my grasp for a time is that of file sharing. Those of you familiar with Windows file sharing know it's pretty brain dead easy to share a folder. Turns out it isn't too tricky in Linux, either; once you know what to do.

As with most thing I've learned in Linux, doing a Google search turned up the answer. This time the answer is: Sharing, the NFS way. No point in my redescribing it all, so just follow the link and get educated like I did. Of course, you probably had more common sense than I and you googled alread. Or maybe your googling lead you here. Whatever.
