Hi Admins'
I couldn't get an answer from list and also from ITRC about the rpc.mount to be worked on reserved
ports. In my 10.20 nfs servers, rpc.mountd is running on reserved ports. (btw, what differs if this daemon
works on reserved port??) .
I have one more question about an nfs bug. In the ISS scan (again), there is a bug says :
NFS mountable using Ultrix remount bug. An attacker can access NFS exports qithout being in the access list.
Any ideas ?
