nfs ​

The nfs scheme, defined in RFC 2224, is similar to ftp except that it points to a file on a remote host that is handled by an NFS automounter on the local host. Such URLs have the form

bash
nfs://user:password@host:port/file

Variable: url-nfs-automounter-directory-spec ​

A string saying how to invoke the NFS automounter. Certain ‘%’ sequences are recognized:

‘%h’ ​

The hostname of the NFS server;

‘%n’ ​

The port number of the NFS server;

‘%u’ ​

The username to use to authenticate;

‘%p’ ​

The password to use to authenticate;

‘%f’ ​

The filename on the remote server;

‘%%’ ​

A literal ‘%’.

Each can be used any number of times.
