Create /etc/exports on s1 with contents:

	/u1	s2
	/u2	s2
	/u3	s2

and create /etc/exports on s2 with contents:

	/u1	s1
	/u2	s1
	/u3	s1
	/u4	s1
	/u5	s1

Now try "/etc/mount s1:/u1 /s1u1".

Next read "mount(8)" to learn about specific options for mounting NFS
file systems, and "exports(4)". Perhaps try reading exports (4) as well.

Please note that you cannot use "dump" for an NFS-mounted filesystem.
