I've been trying to get a NetBSD machine's /etc/exports to match up with a Sun
4.1.3's /etc/exports file but am having a problem with some of the mount
points. Here is the /etc/exports file:
/u/vols -ro
/u/users
[...]
Can NetBSD-1.0/i386 have multiple mount points from the same file system? This
works on the Sun, if that's any justification. Am I just missing some options?
Yes, but you currently have to specify it like this:
/u/vols /u/users -ro
or:
/u -ro
Without launching into a lecture about NFS (in)security, I'll just add
that NetBSD is being more upfront with the effective permissions
you're setting.
