Allow root user

allows all permissions to be changed from hosts under the subnet 192.168.1.0/24

 - shares
 - select projectname
 - select sharename
 - set sharenfs="root=@192.168.1.0/24"
 - commit

if you want to allow only 2 systems to be able to use the "root" user account on NFS shares:

 - set sharenfs="root=@192.168.1.10/32,root=@192.168.1.11/32"

Upgrading

 - download package from Sun's website. i.e.: ak-nas-2009-04-10-5-0-1-1-20-nd.pkg.gz
 - copy the file to your anonymous FTP server
   ssh ftp-server 'sudo apt-get install vsftp'
   scp ~myuser/Desktop/ak-nas-2009-04-10-5-0-1-1-20-nd.pkg.gz ftp-server:/home/ftp
 - using the CLI upgrade the OS. //Note that using SSH may fail and it would be wiser to use a console cable to execute these commands//
   ssh nas-server

Troubleshooting

Shell

   :> shell
   Executing shell commands may invalidate your service contract. Continue? (Y/N) 

   Executing raw shell; "exit" to return to appliance shell ...
   +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
   |  You are entering the operating system shell.  By confirming this action in |
   |  the appliance shell you have agreed that THIS ACTION MAY VOID ANY SUPPORT  |
   |  AGREEMENT.  If you do not agree to this -- or do not otherwise understand  |
   |  what you are doing -- you should type "exit" at the shell prompt.  EVERY   |
   |  COMMAND THAT YOU EXECUTE HERE IS AUDITED, and support personnel may use    |
   |  this audit trail to substantiate invalidating your support contract.  The  |
   |  operating system shell is NOT a supported mechanism for managing this      |
   |  appliance, and COMMANDS EXECUTED HERE MAY DO IRREPARABLE HARM.             |
   |                                                                             |
   |  NOTHING SHOULD BE ATTEMPTED HERE BY UNTRAINED SUPPORT PERSONNEL UNDER ANY  |
   |  CIRCUMSTANCES.  This appliance is a non-traditional operating system       |
   |  environment, and expertise in a traditional operating system environment   |
   |  in NO WAY constitutes training for supporting this appliance.  THOSE WITH  |
   |  EXPERTISE IN OTHER SYSTEMS -- HOWEVER SUPERFICIALLY SIMILAR -- ARE MORE    |
   |  LIKELY TO MISTAKENLY EXECUTE OPERATIONS HERE THAT WILL DO IRREPARABLE      |
   |  HARM.  Unless you have been explicitly trained on supporting this          |
   |  appliance via the operating system shell, you should immediately return    |
   |  to the appliance shell.                                                    |
   |                                                                             |
   |  Type "exit" now to return to the appliance shell.                          |
