Just tried to experiment a little with the issue described below. Deleted "rw" and "no_root_squash" options from the "/etc/exports" entry. In the output of "exportfs -v" I now see "ro" and "root_squash", but still, both are listed twice!
Anybody know where exportfs -v reads a list of options from?
If they are the correct options I would like to use, does it matter that they are listed twice???
Original post:
I am trying to share /storage directory to my local network computers.
The entry in /etc/exports is:
/storage 192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,crossmnt)
I issue a command:
sudo exportfs -a
and then the output of
sudo exportfs -v
reads:
/storage 192.168.1.0/24(rw,wdelay,crossmnt,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,sec=sys,rw,no_root_squash,no_all_squash)
The contents of /var/lib/nfs/etab are:
/storage 192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,wdelay,hide,crossmnt,secure,no_root_squash,no_all_squash,no_subtree_check,secure_locks,acl,anonuid=65534,anongid=65534,sec=sys,rw,no_root_squash,no_all_squash)
What is going on? Why all the duplicate options? How can I get rid of the redundant ones? How can I get rid of unwanted ones like "hide"?

You needed to unexport the directory. Try this
sudo exportfs -u /storage
sudo exportfs -u /storage
sudo exportfs /storageWhen you checked the export list again you'll probably not see any duplicates.
