anonymous nfs login restriction

We use a "relection" client on our PC's to nfs login to our servers. The users have the ability to login as "anonymous", and I was wondering is there a way that I can restrict this access? OS is HP-UX 10.20, non-trusted systems.

Thanks in advance,
Chet

Re: anonymous nfs login restriction

Here is our production nfs config. You see it does allow for limited anonymous login.

We restrict who can log in from where with /var/adm/inetd.sec file.

more /etc/exports

/images
/var/opt/ignite/clients -anon=2
/scratch/ignite/archives


To modify, make changes, save them, exportfs -a

Re: anonymous nfs login restriction

Well, here's what the ouput looks like when I look at the /etc/exports file:
/apps -anon=65534
/users -anon=65534
/usr/spool/pcnfs -anon=65534

By looking at your /etc/exports it looks like I should change the 65534 to 2. Is that correct?

Thanks,
Chet
