Configure the Exports File Restrictively
An XCCDF Group
Description
Linux's NFS implementation uses the file /etc/exports
to control what filesystems
and directories may be accessed via NFS. (See the exports(5)
manpage for more information about the
format of this file.)
The syntax of the exports
file is not necessarily checked fully on reload, and syntax errors
can leave your NFS configuration more open than intended. Therefore, exercise caution when modifying
the file.
The syntax of each line in /etc/exports
is:
/DIR host1(opt1,opt2) host2(opt3)where
/DIR
is a directory or filesystem to export, hostN
is an IP address, netblock,
hostname, domain, or netgroup to which to export, and optN
is an option.
