Disable Network File System Lock Service (nfslock)

An XCCDF Rule

Description

The Network File System Lock (nfslock) service starts the required remote procedure call (RPC) processes which allow clients to lock files on the server. If the local system is not configured to mount NFS filesystems then this service should be disabled. The nfslock service can be disabled with the following command:

$ sudo systemctl mask --now nfslock.service
