Assuming a Unix-style scenario in which one machine (the client) needs access to data stored on another machine (the NFS server): The server implements NFS daemon processes, running by default as nfsd, to make its data generically available to clients.
Unix-tüüpi stsenaariumi korral, kus üks masin (klient) vajab ligipääsu andmetele mis paiknevad teises arvutis (NFS server): Server rakendab NFS Daemon protsessi et teha andmed kliendile üldiselt avalikuks.
