I want to use exportFS to NFS mount a Macintosh directory for sharing data. The Macintosh directory has spaces in the name which export can use, and the \\ and " characters are reserved for other operations in the /etc/exports file. How can I export this directory?
Create a symbolic link (ln -s) for that directory, called shared_data or equivalent name, that is one with no spaces. Then export the symbolic link instead of the original directory.
