Synopsis

Configure and manage NFS (client and/or server).

This module implements the following elements:

• Puppet classes:

• Puppet definitions:

All these components are configured through a set of variables you will find in manifests/params.pp.

Note: the various operations that can be conducted from this repository are piloted from a Rakefile and assumes you have a running Ruby installation. See docs/contributing.md for more details on the steps you shall follow to have this Rakefile working properly.
