9 Choose Y here if you want to allow other computers to access
10 files residing on this system using Sun's Network File System
11 protocol. To compile the NFS server support as a module,
12 choose M here: the module will be called nfsd.
13
14 You may choose to use a user-space NFS server instead, in which
15 case you can choose N here.
16
17 To export local file systems using NFS, you also need to install
18 user space programs which can be found in the Linux nfs-utils
19 package, available from http://linux-nfs.org/. More detail about
20 the Linux NFS server implementation is available via the
21 exports(5) man page.
22
23 Below you can choose which versions of the NFS protocol are
24 available to clients mounting the NFS server on this system.
25 Support for NFS version 2 (RFC 1094) is always available when
26 CONFIG_NFSD is selected.
27
28 If unsure, say N.

47 help
48 Solaris NFS servers support an auxiliary NFSv3 ACL protocol that
49 never became an official part of the NFS version 3 protocol.
50 This protocol extension allows applications on NFS clients to
51 manipulate POSIX Access Control Lists on files residing on NFS
52 servers. NFS servers enforce POSIX ACLs on local files whether
53 this protocol is available or not.
54
55 This option enables support in your system's NFS server for the
56 NFSv3 ACL protocol extension allowing NFS clients to manipulate
57 POSIX ACLs on files exported by your system's NFS server. NFS
58 clients which support the Solaris NFSv3 ACL protocol can then
59 access and modify ACLs on your NFS server.
60
61 To store ACLs on your NFS server, you also need to enable ACL-
62 related CONFIG options for your local file systems of choice.
63
64 If unsure, say N.

73 This option enables support in your system's NFS server for
74 version 4 of the NFS protocol (RFC 3530).
75
76 To export files using NFSv4, you need to install additional user
77 space programs which can be found in the Linux nfs-utils package,
78 available from http://linux-nfs.org/.
