+Sun's <acronym>NFS</acronym> protocol provides transparent remote access to
+shared file systems across networks. The <acronym>NFS</acronym> protocol is
+designed to be machine, operating system, network architecture, and
+transport protocol independent. This independence is achieved through the
+use of Remote Procedure Call (<acronym>RPC</acronym>) primitives built on
+top of an eXternal Data Representation (<acronym>XDR</acronym>).

+The supporting MOUNT protocol performs the operating system-specific
+functions that allow clients to attach remote folder trees to a point
+within the local file system. The mount process also allows the server to
+grant remote access privileges to a restricted set of clients via export
+control.</para>

+The Lock Manager provides support for file locking when used in the
+<acronym>NFS</acronym> environment. The Network Lock Manager
+(<acronym>NLM</acronym>) protocol isolates the inherently stateful aspects
+of file locking into a separate protocol.</para>
