 .SH NAME
 rpc.mountd \- NFS mount daemon
 .SH SYNOPSIS
@@ -42,44 +42,96 @@ syntax.
 For every mount request received from an NFS client,
 .B rpc.mountd
 adds an entry to the
-.B /var/state/nfs/rmtab
+.B /var/lib/nfs/rmtab
 file. When receiving an unmount request, that entry is removed.
-user level part of the NFS service.
 .P
 However, this file is mostly ornamental. One, the client can continue
 to use the file handle even after calling
-.BR rpc.mountd 's
+.B rpc.mountd 's
 UMOUNT procedure. And two, if a client reboots without notifying
-.BR rpc.mountd ,
+.B rpc.mountd ,
 a stale entry will remain in

+the .bar.com domain you could use the following line in /etc/hosts.allow:
+
+mountd: .bar.com
+
+You have to use the daemon name

+for the daemon name (even if the binary has a different name).
+
+For further information please have a look at the
+.BR tcpd (8)
+and
+.BR hosts_access (5)
