Problems using netgroups in /etc/exports

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • NFS exports shared with netgroups can not be accessed by every host in the netgroup.
  • Resolving the netgroup with # getent netgroup <netgroup name> includes the host that can not mount the NFS share.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 (NFS server)
  • NFS
  • nscd
  • ldap as a netgroup source
