If I understand this post, then to use NFS and not share my NAS with the world I need to replace the "*" in the /etc/export file with the IP address of the other UNIX box. Something like 192.168.1.xxx of the other computer.
But what do I do if that IP address is not stable and changes each time that computer is powered up? Do I use the UID of 501, something else or are there additional changes that need to be made?
Thanks for your help.
