The server general parameters required by Native File Access for UNIX are

When modifying this file, make sure you stop the services using nfsstop
and restart using nfsstart.

Description
Lets you set the default access to eDirectory or NIS. To
set the default access to eDirectory and retrieve all
information from eDirectory, set this parameter to 1. (This
is the default value.) Set this parameter to 0 to retrieve
information from NIS server.
Lets you enable or disable NIS client. By default, NIS
client access is enabled. To disable NIS client access, set
this parameter to 0.
Sets the NIS domain for NIS client access. No default
can be provided.
Provides the NIS server servicing the domain. If a specific
server is needed for the domain, this parameter must be
set. Otherwise, the NIS server is discovered using the
broadcast.
No default can be provided.

separated by commas. These containers indicate where
the search for users and groups should start.
The NDSILIB module uses this parameter. The value can
be either 25 containers or a string whose length should
not exceed 2000 bytes, whichever is less.
If you do not set any search containers, search will start
from the bindery and then in the server's default context.
