showmount: Display all NFS mounted directories.
$ showmount -d
try on your machine
The "showmount -d" command is used to display a list of all directories that are currently being exported by a Network File System (NFS) server.
In NFS, the server exports directories to be made available to clients over the network. These exported directories can be mounted on the client machines and accessed as if they were local directories.
When you run the "showmount -d" command on the NFS server, it will provide you with a list of all the directories that are currently being exported. This information can be useful for clients or administrators to understand the available resources and manage access permissions.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
