This guide explains how to set up an NFS server and an NFS client on Debian 9 (Stretch).

Some folks grew up on Linux. But for most of us, we started using it later in life. Whether you switched from another operating system, or are one of the lucky few who knew no OS before it, all of us were beginners at some point. How old were you when you started using Linux?
