NFS Security in Solaris 8

Hi Gurus,

I have a NFS Security question:

I am running Solaris 8.

Following is my /etc/dfs/dfstab entry:

/usr/sbin/share -F nfs -o rw=host1:host2,anon=0,ro /dir

even then host1 or host2 can not have write access to /dir

if I try to touch a file to host1 or host2 it gives an obvious error
:"touch: test cannot create"

but if I replace host1 and host2 with ip addresses everything works
fine.

I can ping to host1 and host2 from NFS Server box. Was wondering how
that can happen?

I changed nsswitch.conf to search for dns first and then files but no
success.

I guess there is some configuration problem on NFS Server.

Any Help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

B
