Slackware 13.37 x86_64 stable is released!

Thanks to everyone who pitched in on this release: the Slackware team,
the folks producing upstream code, and linuxquestions.org for providing
a great forum for collaboration and testing.

The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a
dual-sided
32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD.  Please consider supporting the Slackware
project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com.  We're taking
pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription.

As always, thanks to the Slackware community for testing, suggestions,
and feedback.  :-)

Have fun!

NFS Mounts</a></h1>
<p>NFS stands for the Network Filesystem. It is not really part of the real filesystem,
but can be used to add parts to the mounted filesystem.</p>
<p>Large Unix environments often times share the same programs, sets of home directories,
and mail spool. The problem of getting the same copy to each machine is solved with NFS.
We can use NFS to share one set of home directories between all of the workstations. The
workstations then mount that NFS share as if it were on their own machines.</p>
<p>See <a href="network-configuration-nfs.html#NETWORK-CONFIGURATION-NFS-NFS">Section
5.6.2</a> and the man pages for <tt class="FILENAME">exports</tt>(5), <tt
class="COMMAND">nfsd</tt>(8), and <tt class="COMMAND">mountd</tt>(8) for more
information.</p>
