I am running DOT 7.0.3 on a 960 using netgroups. No problems at all.

Hi,
Has anyone had problems with using a netgroup name in a rw access list in an exports file? I just found bug #1287. I am using a netgroup file on the filer to define names to use in the exports file currently but I have had some problems. I am running DOT 7.0.3. It would be a real drawback if I can't use a netgroup name for rw access.
We have found that if you edit a local /etc/netgroup file on the filer to add a new NFS client, then it takes a while for the new client be be able to mount. If you don't want to wait, then you can re-export what the new client wants to mount or you can run
exportfs -f
to flush the export cache.
