I saw in my linux config that I already have nfs installed so it was no
need to emrge them again.
and just made a exports file.
te ecports must be there and fstab has to setup for te nfs directory to be
monted on my fido2 mashine.

My main server as router is .105 and mt fid main pc is .106 and fido with
mbse as 2:236/152 is .107
A Wan network is the network te world ca see on your system and ping to for
hostnames to the mashines, like if ping to binkd.kofobbs.dk and getting te
answer of it ip number and mashine hostname as fido1.kofobbs.net
