1When you install mapr-nfs
, NFSv3 is installed. To install
NFSv4, you must use the mapr-nfs4server
package. Neither NSFv3 nor NSFv4
provides security by default. You can configure NFSv4 server to work with Active Directory
and Kerberos servers, but you must first install Active Directory and Kerberos servers. For
more information, see Configuring NFSv4 Server for Kerberos.
NFSv3 does not support security. .
