to configure the directory as pseudo root. If this directory should be bound to another
directory under an already configured pseudo root, make sure that a target bind path is
given in the option list with bind=/target/path.
For example, suppose that the directory /exports is chosen as the pseudo root direc-
tory for all the clients that can access the server. Then add this in the upper half and
make sure that the options entered for this directory include fsid=0. If there is another
directory, /data, that also needs to be NFSv4 exported, add this directory to the upper
half. While entering options for this, make sure that bind=/exports/data is in
the list and that /exports/data is an already existing subdirectory of /exports.
Any change in the option bind=/target/path, whether addition, deletion, or
change in value, is reflected in Bindmount targets. This column is not directly editable
column, instead summarizing directories and their nature. After the information is
complete, click Finish to complete the configuration or Start to restart the service.
38.4.2 NFSv3 and NFSv2 Exports
Make sure that Enable NFSv4 is not checked in the initial dialog before clicking Next.
The next dialog has two parts. In the upper text field, enter the directories to export.
Below, enter the hosts that should have access to them. There are four types of host
wild cards that can be set for each host: a single host (name or IP address), netgroups,
wild cards (such as * indicating all machines can access the server), and IP networks.
This dialog is shown in
Figure 38.4, "Exporting Directories with NFSv4"
(page 722).
Find a more thorough explanation of these options in man exports. Click Finish to
complete the configuration.
