<title>Introduction</title>
<para>This tool<footnote>
<para>You can start this tool from the command line, by typing
<emphasis role="bold">diskdrake --nfs</emphasis> as root.</para>
</footnote> allows you to declare some shared directories to be
accessible to all users on the machine. The protocol used for this is NFS
which is available on most Linux or Unix systems. The shared directory
will be thus available directly at boot. Shared directories can be also
accessible directly in a single session for a user with tools such as file
browsers.</para>
