- Changes from 2.0 to 2.2
-
- * Fixed a fair number of bugs.
- * authenticate fh's on every request.
- * Use setfsuid/setfsgid if available for setting owner/group on file
- access rather than seteuid.
- * Implement root_squash and no_root_squash mount options. Note: root_squash
- is on by default, so you have to insert no_root_squash where appropriate
- or your configuration might break.
- * New set of uid squash options: squash_uids, squash_gids (specify
- list of uids/gids to squash), all_squash, anon_uid and anon_gid
- (override uid/gid of anon user for specific clients), noaccess (exclude
- subdirectories).
- * Uid/gid mapping using Mark Shand's ugidd.
- * Different log levels for debugging.
- * Manpages updated to reflect the current set of defaults.
- * Patch to perform per-call profiling of the server.
- * Netgroup support in /etc/exports.
- * mountd now support /etc/rmtab and showmount -a.
- * export file re-reading with SIGHUP in nfsd and mountd.
- * Support for multiple nfsd's running in parallel (read-only).
- * Interactive BUILD script.
- * Added new host format to exports file; you can now use network/mask to
- export a volume to an entire IP subnetwork.
- * Added selective uid/gid squashing and cleint-specific nobody uid/gid
- to exports file.
- * Added noaccess option in exports file.
- * Added rpc.rquotad
