I have set up the exporting of filesystems on a particular server. What I want to do now is limit the access to the filesystems to one system. The exports file that I have in place has the following syntax:
/home/nohadani
/media/disk/nohadani
The problem that I am having is I am able to mount the directories in question from a remote host other than the one specified in the exports file. What other configuration steps do I need in order to limit access to the NFS mounts exclusively to the host listed in exports? Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Limiting Access to NFS mounts
Another thing to check is to make sure there is no space between the hostname and the open parenthesis. In other words, some Linux variants treat this string:
/media/disk/nohadani
differently from:
/media/disk/nohadani
Note the blank space between

Re: Limiting Access to NFS mounts
Thanks for the help. When I ran the exportfs -rav command, the output indicated the hostname was not recognized. Most likely this is due to some DNS error.
To expedite matters, I replaced the hostname with the ip address of the system in question, and reran the exportfs -rav command again. There were no errors in the output, and a subsequent test on a remote system other than the one in question resulted in a permission denied message, which is what was supposed to happen.
Thanks again for the help.

I need to edit the original message. Is there a way I can do so? Thanks.

Re: Limiting Access to NFS mounts
No. If there is a security/privacy issue because you have that in your text, you could ask the moderators to remove it. But not for some simple typos. You can just correct it in a reply.
