Unable to specify multiple networks for NFS shares

[johnpletka]

When the GUI writes out the /etc/exports file, it adds a "-network" <Whatever you typed in>. That works fine if you specify a single network, but if you specify multiple networks, it breaks and none of them can log in.

For example:
/mnt/tank/xen_nfs -alldirs -mapall=root:wheel -network 10.1.1.20/30 10.1.1.78/30 10.1.1.104/30
gives permissions problems to everyone trying to log in

but
/mnt/tank/xen_nfs -alldirs -mapall=root:wheel 10.1.1.20 10.1.1.78 10.1.1.104
works.
You can get around it by editing the exports file directly, this is probably something the GUI should support

exports doesn't support multiple networks. It will let you specify a list of hosts, and that is something the GUI doesn't support. You can't mix and match -network with individual hosts either.

The feature enhancement would be to allow a list of hosts to be entered, and that being mutually exclusive with specifying a network.

In this example case, you would have to specify 10.1.1.0/25 for the network, which depending on the setup might be too broad.

Fixed in 8.0-RELEASE
