[nfsv4] Questions about NFS deamons

[msalcedo at inf.puc-rio.br]

Hello all,

I really want to understand how NFS deamons works. Please, I need your help.

What's the function of the deamon mountd (or rpc.mountd)? How it works?

Meet all requests of NFS clients for mounting filesystems ?
Mountd don't "speak" with clients directly  but through the nfsd (another
deamon)? So, nfsd get clients requests and pass to mountd? Mountd only
meets nfsd requests ?

How nfsd and mountd interacts?

Thank you very much,

Matheus Salcedo
