netgroup ARE ONLY NIS related, cannot have non-nis netgroup file.
In the nsswitch.conf
netgroup: nis
your dfstab or exports file would have this entry:
share -F nfs -o ro=xyz-hosts /utilities
xyz-hosts is your entry wihin the netgroup nis map
hope this helps

Frank, I don't know about local netgroups anymore (got away from those a very long time ago). We do use NIS netgroups in our exports for the access= however we are still specifying hosts in the root= and the rw=.
Does anyone know if the root= and rw= will be accepting netgroups? We tried to get this to work a few months ago and it didn't. Last night I spent quite some time auditing the exports file on all 22 of our filers (each with more than 10 lines) and the root=/rw= were what took the bulk of the time.

Hi
Is it possible to use a local netgroup file instead of the NIS netgroup map on a filer ( ontap 6.1.2R2 ). I have too much hosts to put in /etc/exports file
