To specify the UID and GID for remote root users, edit the '/etc/exports' file and add the following for each export:
anonuid='value greater than UID_MAX from /etc/login.defs'
anongid='value greater than GID_MAX from /etc/login.defs'
Alternatively, functionally equivalent values of 60001, 65534, 65535 may be used.
Parameter:
[max_uid_gid]
Technical Mechanism:
Specifying the anonymous UID and GID ensures that the remote root user is mapped
to a local account which has no permissions on the system.
