2-126 Sun StorEdge 5310 NAS Troubleshooting Guide • December 2004
How do I authorize an entire subnet as trusted hosts?
This can only be done by directly editing the configuration file, /dvol/etc/hostgrps.
1. Access this file via NFS or SMB, and open it with an editor.
2. Edit the line which begins with the word “trusted”. Entries in hostgrps are plain
text, separated by spaces.
To allow trusted access to the entire class B subnet 192.168.0.0, you would add the
entry “192.168.*” The finished hostgrps file should look something like this:
general *
trusted host1 host2 192.168*
How do I manage NFS exports via the StorEdge Web Admin?
1. To use the Web Admin, connect with a Web browser to http://<hostname or IP
address of your StorEdge>.
2. Click “Grant” or “Yes” to accept any Java software authorization windows and
you will reach the login screen.
3. Type the administrator password to access the administration interface.
4. Manage NFS exports by navigating to Unix Configuration/Configure
NFS/Configure Exports.
Exports are created or deleted with the add/remove buttons. The add button brings
up a pop-up window with several options, as follows:
■ Volume: Pull down menu with a complete list of volumes. Select the volume for
which you wish to create an export.
■ Path: This defines the directory path relative to the root directory of the volume
selected above. This parameter can be omitted, which will result in an export
created for the root of the volume.
■ Full Path: This is a display only field, showing the full export path, combining the
volume and directory path.
■ Access: Select a radio button to define read/write, read only, or no access for this
export. The “no access” export is used to restrict access to a group which would
otherwise have access to the export.
■ Hosts: Select the host or group of hosts to which this directory path will be
exported. Pull down menus are available for existing hosts, hostgrps and
netgroups entries. There is also a text box, in which you can type an IP address or
resolvable hostname for a previously unknown host.
5. After filling these fields, click the apply button to save the new export.
