GEN005840 - The NFS server must be configured to restrict file system access to local hosts.

Information

The NFS access option limits user access to the specified level. This assists in protecting exported file systems. If access is not restricted, unauthorized hosts may be able to access the system's NFS exports.

Solution

Edit /etc/dfs/dfstab and add ro and/or rw options (as appropriate) specifying a list of hosts or networks which are permitted access. Re-export the file systems.
