nfs port monitoring

edited May 31, 2013 5:20AM in Oracle Solaris Networking (MOSC) 5 commentsAnswered

NFS mount requests from a client towards server are sent from an unprivileged port (>1023). Those ports
do not demand root rights of the user who wants to utilize these ports & therefore any nonprivileged user on the network could
mount the NFS shares of the OSS. Is it possible to fix this?

Could we enable NFS port monitoring in our system so as to prohibit non-privileged mount requests?

and how can we enable it ? is there any impact of enabling port monitoring?

Howdy, Stranger!
