ROOT vs NON-ROOT
|
||||
================
|
||||
When running as root, libnfs tries to allocate a system port for its connection
|
||||
to the nfs server. When running as non-root it will use a normal
|
||||
ephemeral port.
|
||||
Many NFS servers default to a mode where they do not allow non-system
|
||||
ports from connecting.
|
||||
These servers require you use the "insecure" export option in /etc/exports
|
||||
in order to allow libnfs clients to be able to connect.
