Use this option to set NFS (Solaris, FreeBSD or Linux and other UNIX family clients) access
privileges for shared folders.
Enter the Shared Folder SetupàNFS Privileges page, and select the desired shared folder in the
Folder name column. The NFS client's privilege column below will show the hosts and subnets or
net groups with access privileges and the type of permission granted.
NFS client's privilege consists of three components:
1. The first component is the subject sharing a folder, either a host, subnet, or a net group. The
entry Host:* means the folder is shared between all hosts.
2. The second component is the share mode, such as read only or writeable.
3. The third element is a local user name. The administrator root of a NFS client can only access
the folder with this ID.
The root of some clients and the NAS root can be owned by different users. Unless you wish to
manage a shared folder from a client terminal as root, you should always assign the terminal root
to a non-root ID for security reasons.
