Hi,
I want to share a hard drive with another machine in same network. Can I do this and how? Thanks.
 
Start nfsd on the server machine

Export the filesystem by editing /etc/exports and using the exportfs command.

Mount the exported drive from the client machine using:

mount servername:/path/to/filesystem

 
Share the hard drive with any protocol like
nfs, afp, smb, ftp,rsync.

Just depends on how you want to connect to the hard drive.
