Greetings,
I've read over lots of things, but I'm still a bit unclear on these functions.
If a person sets MAPROOT User and MAPROOT Group to ROOT and WHEEL respectively on an NFS share, does that essentially give the root user of a machine accessing the mounted share root access to the files stored on the FreeNAS box, and is this frowned upon from a security standpoint? This is a purely home environment with no remote access configured.
It's a little convoluted from what I've read, and I'm not clear.
Thanks!
