 Dear Managers,

 I wish to configure my /etc/exports file so that for a given filesystem
 some clients have superuser access (-root=0 option) and others do not.
 This would seem a reasonable thing, but so far all the combinations I
 have tried (based on the exports manual page, which I don't really follow)
 have either given all the client hosts su access, or none of them.

 e.g.
  I tried something like the following in /etc/exports

  /data/stuff -access linux -root=0 alphas

  to get /data/stuff exported without su priviledge to the `linux'
  netgroup, with su priviledge to the `alpha' netgroup and no export
  by any other host.

  The above does not work, the linux group gets -root=0 priviledge too.
  What is the correct syntax ?

  Regards,
   Paul
