NFS is a technology that allow you to share some files / folders over the network. So:
- All the clients will share the installation, configuration files and so on.
- Each client will run a dedicated instance of the operating system
- Logs will be centralized on the common NFS server - so we don't loose data on each reboot.
The NFS configuration is done in the /etc/exports file
vim /etc/exports
