This is what I tell my students:

Anything serviced by the mount driver is actually a remote file
system. This includes servers reached through /srv mostly.
The only local file systems are those of the kernel drivers.

Thus, you can see file trees from your disks and other machines
as remote things that you can import to your system.

/rc/bin/termrc says:

		/bin/bind -a '#'^$i /dev >/dev/null >[2=

So, you mean kernel devices are also 'remote systemes'?
Media, of course, can be imported from remote system.

How do you explain this to your students?
