There seems to be some confusion about the NFS UID bug. Here are some facts about this bug that are worth knowing: - Solaris 2.x (any system with 32 bit uids) is not susceptible - The NFS jumbo patch for SunOS 4.1.x *does* fix the UID bug - nfsbug will report *false* positives on the UID bug on filesystems that: - are exported with root access on 16 bit machines (side effect of truncating uids to least significant 16 bits) Keep your uids < 60000 or - have a world writable root directory.
