Change export permissions
¬
When you set up a file server to export directories, you also specify which computers can access themÐwith read/write, read-only, or root privileges.

You can change these permissions at any time.

¬
1	Log in as root on the computer with the file server.
	If you don't log in as root, you can enter the root password if the User Authentication panel appears.
¬
2	Double-click NFSManager in /NextAdmin. 
¬
3	Select a directory at the top of the Exported Directories window ;../Reference/Tools/NFSManager/NFSManagerPanels/ExportedDirsWindow.rtfd;;¬.
	If this window isn't open, choose Export From in the NFSManager menu, select a domain, and click OK.
¬
4	Type the name of each computer you want to have Read Only Access and click Add. Or select a name from the Read Only Access list and click Remove.
	You can type a host name, alias, or netgroup name.
¬
5	Type the name of each computer you want to have Read/Write Access and click Add. Or select a name from the Read/Write Access list and click Remove.
	As in step 4, you can type a host name, alias, or netgroup name.
¬
6	Type the name of each computer you want to have root privileges on the computer. Or select a name from the Root Access list and click Remove.
	Be sure the computers you add to this list are secured from unauthorized root logins.
¬
7	Click OK. 
¬

These permissions apply the next time the computer starts up.
